Book Description
Excerpt from The Protestant Reformation: A Lecture Delivered in St. Ann's Church on Sunday Evening, December 1, 1878 But there are - I know it well - earnest and sincere minds, led away by blindness and by prejudice, who hunger and thirst after some real and substantial truth, who would know Christ, whose hearts are moved towards Him as their Redeemer, the begina ning and the end of their faith. To them these words of mine may come, by the blessing of the Divine Spirit, as words which may guide them to the haven of rest, the ark of God, to the Church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth, which, standing on the certainty of the divine veraa city, can no more be shaken than can the Throne of God itself. In the lecture which I propose to deliver to you this evening, and in which I shall consider espe cially the Reformation on the Continent, I shall Speak, first, of the causes which led to this move ment secondly, of its first beginnings and the teach ings of the so-called Reformers thirdly, I will dwell upon the characters of the Reformers themselves; and, lastly, speak briefly of the sources of that suc cess which has made this movement, in the begin ning so small, almost to cover the Western earth.

The Unintended Reformation
Author: Brad S. GregoryPublisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 067426407X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
In a work that is as much about the present as the past, Brad Gregory identifies the unintended consequences of the Protestant Reformation and traces the way it shaped the modern condition over the course of the following five centuries. A hyperpluralism of religious and secular beliefs, an absence of any substantive common good, the triumph of capitalism and its driver, consumerism—all these, Gregory argues, were long-term effects of a movement that marked the end of more than a millennium during which Christianity provided a framework for shared intellectual, social, and moral life in the West. Before the Protestant Reformation, Western Christianity was an institutionalized worldview laden with expectations of security for earthly societies and hopes of eternal salvation for individuals. The Reformation’s protagonists sought to advance the realization of this vision, not disrupt it. But a complex web of rejections, retentions, and transformations of medieval Christianity gradually replaced the religious fabric that bound societies together in the West. Today, what we are left with are fragments: intellectual disagreements that splinter into ever finer fractals of specialized discourse; a notion that modern science—as the source of all truth—necessarily undermines religious belief; a pervasive resort to a therapeutic vision of religion; a set of smuggled moral values with which we try to fertilize a sterile liberalism; and the institutionalized assumption that only secular universities can pursue knowledge. The Unintended Reformation asks what propelled the West into this trajectory of pluralism and polarization, and finds answers deep in our medieval Christian past.
