Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Heidelberg Catechism: A Short History of the Heidelberg Catechism, Introduction, Tercentenary Text, Selected Bible Passages, Suitable Hymns and Selections From the Scriptures In the year 1559 Frederic III, surnamed the Pious, became elector of the Palatinate, a country on the upper Rhine. He found, on his accession, great confusion and excitement on account of the doctrine of the holy Communion; one party was inclined to the Lutheran, the other, to the Reformed view. In fact the doctrine of the Lord´s Supper gave rise, at that time, to violent contentions throughout Germany. For after Luther´s death (1546) a large number of evangelical theologians would recognize only those doctrines as Lutheran, which Luther had delivered against Reformed doctrine, but ignored what he had taught before and besides in a milder spirit. They considered themselves the true Lutherans and contended sharply against all who differed in doctrine. Melanchthon, who lived to 1560, and the theologians in touch with him, did not approve of this, and so a controversy arose, which led many to more diligent research and convinced them that according to the Scriptures the Reformed was the true doctrine. This was true of the Palatinate also. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
