What the Reformation Was Really About

I posted this quote several months ago, but with Reformation Day quickly approaching I thought it would be appropriate to post it again:

The closer one looks, the clearer it becomes: the Reformation was not, principally, a negative movement, about moving away from Rome; it was a positive movement, about moving towards the gospel.
