When Tradition Collides with Truth: Christ, Martin Luther, and Divine Authority

Jesus is challenged, “By what authority do You do these things?” Luther is pressed, “Will you submit to popes, councils, and tradition?” In both stories, institutions cling to control, while Christ and the Reformers stand on Scripture and conscience as the final authority. This message explores the difference between true authority and mere control, exposes the danger of elevating institutions above the Word of God, and calls us today—especially as Seventh-day Adventists—to live lives bound to the Bible and the witness of the Holy Spirit. 📌Want to support us?
