Penance, Purgatory, and the Assurance of Salvation

Gavin Ortlund, Jordan Cooper, and Michael Horton discuss how Catholic and Reformation practices shape the Christian life. How do our views of penance, repentance, justification, purgatory, and assurance of salvation impact how we live our lives? Do they drive us to look to Christ and the promises of God, or do they cause us to look inward? DEFENDING THE REFORMATION is a 6 part series bringing together Gavin Ortlund, Jordan Cooper, and Michael Horton to address some of the most prominent criticisms of the Reformation and key Protestant doctrines. Were the Reformers true reformers or radical revolutionaries? Does Sola Scriptura undermine church tradition? Is Sola Fide merely a product of nominalism? Together, these Protestant theologians examine the historical context, theological depth, and biblical fidelity of the Reformation.
