The Man for Every Millennium; Martin Luther and Christ's Eternal Gospel

Title: The Man for Every Millennium; Martin Luther and Christ's Eternal Gospel Speaker: Rev. Peter McIntyre Date: 26 October 2025 Bible: Ezekiel 33:7; Psalm 78 The sermon centres on the enduring significance of Christ as the 'man for every millennium,' exemplified through Martin Luther's Reformation, which restored the gospel's core truths: salvation by faith alone, the authority of Scripture, the priesthood of all believers, and the personal relationship with God. Drawing from Ezekiel 33 and Psalm 78, it emphasizes the church's role as a watchman, called to warn and proclaim the unchanging gospel amid spiritual darkness and cultural decline. The historical narrative traces the oppressive conditions of the medieval church—spiritual and intellectual darkness, the suppression of Scripture, and the denial of personal faith—before Luther's courageous stand at Worms, which ignited a revival that liberated conscience, empowered Scripture, and transformed nations. The sermon calls for ongoing personal and corporate reformation, urging believers to treasure God's Word, speak truth boldly, pray for revival, and remain faithful witnesses in a world increasingly hostile to biblical truth, affirming that Christ's gospel remains the only hope for individuals and nations alike.
