Reformation is a term that can be used to apply to individuals who are in need of moral development, but it can also be applied to organizations. The most famous of these is the Protestant Reformation of the church. Do you see this as a one-time event, or is it ongoing or periodic? To bring this question up to date, is the church currently in need of another reformation? If you are currently a part of the church, are you in a position to know the answer? Were those who were a part of the existing church in a position to recognize the need and reform it from within?

daily word - study?

Do you study to show yourself approved? There is Biblical support for this and some faith traditions place a great deal of emphasis on study. In a larger sense education is beneficial, but is there a difference between education and transformation? For the Bible also refers to those who are ever learning and never coming to a knowledge of the truth. Can you see the difference between those who have been through the refiner’s fire and those who have only been to school? Which one do you want to be? You don’t have to stop studying to have a transformative encounter with me.
