Paving the Way

Before the fulness of the gospel could be restored, the world had to be prepared. In the 14th century, the Bible began to be more widely available thanks to the invention of the printing press. People like John Wycliffe, John Calvin, and Martin Luther began to question the practices of the Catholic church. On October 31, 1517, Martin Luther posted his Ninety-five Theses, which challenged some of these practices and helped pave the way for the restoration of the gospel.
