    Luther and Bucer

    Hello everybody! I would like to know at what time Luther repudiated the agreement with Bucer? Indeed, the Book of Concord (solida declaratio, vii) says that the Smalkald articles give the true explanation of the Wittenberg's Concord, in such a manner that sacramentarians cannot continue to...

    Communion

    Hi, I recommand you the book by John Nevin: The Mystical Presence. Although the author doesn't support the Lutheran doctrine of an oral manducation, he defend an high view on the sacrament. Against neo-zwinglians and their poor views on the Lord's Supper, he reminds the Reformed the orthodox...

    Letter By Calvin, in Latin

    Hello everybody! I founded a letter by John Calvin and I'd like to know what the reformer says in this document, espacially about the concord betwin the German churches. Unfortunately, this letter is written in Latin and I don't understand this language. So I'd like to know if somebody...

    Sola Scriptura?

    Good day Athanasias! Often, people make a confusion between the "objective" autority in the Church (for Roma, this autority is verbal tradition and bible), and the "directive" autority (for Roma: the Magistery and Pope), and imagine that by "sola scriptura", Protestants (among them: Reformed)...

    Marburg

    Ok! Thanks for all your links! But I also know that Strasburg's theologians (Bucer, Capito, etc;) signed a concord with "lutherans", at Wittenberg, in 1536. We often heard about this concord because of its eucharist article (wich is in the Concord Book of 1580). But would you know where it is...

    What do you think about...?

    Till said: Regarding Johann Gerhard's statement: This is more against the Zwinglian ideas than Calvin's Eucharist theology. You have to understand that for these early Lutheran theologians the Zwinglian sacramentology was destroying the heart of Christian faith. A compromise like Calvin and...

    What do you think about...?

    I asked this question because I read somewhere that several lutheran theologians said (like Johannes Gerhard) that if they had to chose between Calvinism and roman Catholicism, they would choose the second way. Surprise, to me...

    What kind of Confession does your church embrace?

    Hi, I do not hold the London Baptist confession. As French, the confession of my Church is the "Confessio Gallicana" (Confession de La Rochelle :cool:) of 1559, almost totaly drafted by Calvin himself ;) I'm also very attached to the Augsburg confession (1530) to which subscribed J. Calvin when...

    What do you think about...?

    Hy everybody! Excepted U. Zwingli, who was obviously unconciliable with lutheran faith, what do you think about theologians like M. Bucer or J. Calvin (and, especially, about their theology)? Thank for your answers! God bless you!

    Marburg

    Hello everybody! I'd like to know if someone here already read the articles of Marburg (1529) which were drafted in conclusion of the colloquy between theologians from Wittenberg, Srtasburg and Zurich? Especially, I'd like to know if you know where is it possible to find these articles, and if...
