Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The History of the Church of Christ, Vol. 2: Intended as a Continuation of the Work of the Rev. Joseph Milner and the Very Rev. Isaac Milner The present volume is divided into two parts - the former relating the sequel of the Lutheran reformation, and the latter the commencement and progress of that of Switzerland, to the close of the year 1527. In the former, it cannot but be gratifying to the reader who has a taste for these studies, and who has long witnessed the zeal and firmness of the good Elector of Saxony as an independent prince, to contemplate his truly Christian conduct, and the support which his principles afforded him, when reduced to adversity. The lovely mind of Melancthon is here also exhibited, it is hoped, in a just light, and his character vindicated from many aspersions injuriously cast upon it. The examination of some of his works, particularly his Common Places, introduces discussions, and affords a view of the progress of an enlightened, devout, and humble mind, which may prove instructive, especially to the younger class of theological students. The notice of the Council of Trent presents a curious history, uniting the mournful and the ludicrous in no common degree. Alas! to what authorities have professed Christians deferred, and to what guides have they implicitly yielded the direction of their faith and their consciences, when they have once surrendered the "oracles of God," or failed to seek the illumination of his Spirit to lead to the just understanding and use of them!
