Über diesen Titel

 Dive into the transformative era of the Reformation with this compelling volume, which opens with an insightful summary of Protestant beliefs as articulated in the Belgic Confession. Discover John Calvins heartfelt cover letter to Francis I of France, urging him to read Calvins Institutes of the Christian Religion to grasp the essence of Protestant doctrine directly. Following this, youll find 100 thought-provoking aphorisms that encapsulate the core messages of the Institutes, along with Thomas Cranmers directives highlighting the Reformations impact on clergy and parishes. Youll also encounter William Tyndales passionate protestation emphasizing the primacy of the Bible in doctrine and practice. The volume continues with a series of recorded debates, featuring Cardinal Sadoletos measured correspondence with Geneva and Calvins spirited response, as well as exchanges between Pope Paul III and Emperor Charles V, showcasing the intense emotions on both sides. Cranmers writings further explore the delicate balance between the Papacy and the state, leading to reflections on King Henry VIIIs decree to expel the Pope from England, and William Turners views on the incomplete execution of this command. The discussion then shifts to the pivotal topics of sacraments, ceremonies, and attire that fueled disputes during this period. Finally, youll find a collection of Reformed prayers and a simple catechism for children, embodying the spirit of Reformed piety. (Summary by InTheDesert) Don’t miss the other volumes in this enlightening collection Volume 2 and Volume 3.
