Pristine Grace Timeline

1997 - BornAgain.net created

    In 1997, bornagain.net was created by Brandan Kraft when he was 22 years old and still in college. Bornagain.net was an internet relay chat server and web based forum meant for christians to chat with each other. The basis for Pristine CMS (content management system) was created by Brandan Kraft.

2001 - 5solas.org created

    In 2001, bornagain.net rebranded as 5solas.org to emphasize the five solas of the reformation, along with the five points of calvinism/TULIP. 5solas.org was home to several articles regarding the Gospel, but the focus was on an internet forum where believers could come and discuss Gospel theology with each other. Brandan's CMS continued to evolve.

2004 - Pristine Grace created

    In 2004, the website Pristine Grace was created with the release of Pristine CMS 1.0. It was created to showcase short articles magnifying the free grace of God. It was dedicated to pure Gospel teaching.

2006-2018 - Predestinarian.net and Consolidation

    In 2006, the website Predestinarian.net was created to focus only on the discussion forum. 5solas.org and Pristinegrace.org continued to exist.

    In 2018, 5solas.org and Predestinarian.net were consolidated into Pristinegrace.org. We also overhauled our software with Pristine CMS 2.0 and made many important upgrades.

2022 - Pristine CMS 3.0

    In July 2022, Brandan rebuilt the software from the ground up by creating Pristine CMS 3.0. It was made to be fully responsive and compatible with all devices and browsers.
