Welcome to Reformationtwo.com, where we're issuing a call for a new, second Reformation in the Christian Church. Why would we
do that? Because we think that the first Reformation left a lot undone, or done poorly. Many people in the world think Christianity is dead, and you know what? By
and large, they're right! Most Christians are loaded down with ritual, moralism, and bad theology about what the future holds; in other words: religion. Yet what
does the Bible say? It says that Man's two most basic needs are already taken care of: our need of forgiveness, and our need for power. Almost 2,000 years ago we
were reconciled to God by the sacrifice of Jesus of Nazareth, His only Son, and Jesus lives still through the Spirit to dwell in us and do through us what we
cannot do on our own. All humanity finds itself in a pretty good situation, and it's the job of the Church to tell the world how that came to be, and what it means
for the future. Instead of doing that, however, we either act dead ourselves, or preach a message that has no life in it. Our group is here to change all that, and
we're glad you found us on the net.
What do we offer? First of all, there's a lot of reading on this site, some of it serious and some of it satire. Remember,
people who've been set free often laugh. Further, there are some proposals and related discussion about what needs to be done by the Church to bring about lasting
change in the world. Then there's a book that you can buy from Amazon or any of the on-line bookstores that develops these ideas in greater detail. There's also a
blog written by the book's author to comment on current events, and if you want, you can email your own thoughts and ideas to us so we can improve our format and
message.
So take a look around the site, and see if it doesn't contain good news for you personally, and also for the larger Church.
We're here for a purpose, and it's not to be religious or play church games. Jesus came to denounce such behavior once, and it's time to heed his warnings in our
present day. We'd love it if you would tell your friends about what you've read here, so that the Church can stop being dead, and start to mirror the life that it
was intended to have in its Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
