Book excerpt: Church History, Volume Two chronicles the events, the triumphs, and the struggles of the Christian movement from the years leading up to the Reformation through the next five centuries to the present-day. Looking closely at the integral link between the history of the world and that of the church, Church History paints a portrait of God's people within the context of the times, cultures, and developments that both influenced and were influenced by the church. FEATURES: Maps, charts, and illustrations spanning the time from the thirteenth century to today. Explanations of all the major denominational movements, traditions, and schisms during and after the Reformation. Overviews of the Christian movement in Africa, eastern Europe, Asia, and Latin America to cover the scope of the ecumenical environment of the twenty-first century. Insights into the role and influence of politics, culture and societal norms, and technology on the Western church. Unbiased details on the major theological controversies and issues of each period. AUTHORS' PERSPECTIVE: Authors John D. Woodbridge and Frank A. James III wrote this history of the church from the perspective that such a history is the story of the greatest movement and community the world has known—as imperfect as it still is. It's a human story of a divinely called people who want to live by a divine revelation. It's a story of how they succeeded and how they failed and of how they are still trying to live out their calling. From the Reformation theologians in Europe to the revivalists, apologists, and Christian thinkers all over the world, the historical figures detailed are people who have struggled with the meaning of the greatest event in history—the coming of the Son of God—and with their role in that event and in the lives of God's people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Church of Christ, Vol. 2 of 3: From the Diet of Augsburg 1530, to the Eighteenth Century; Originally Designed as a Continuation of Milner's History The state of religion in Switzerland, at the commencement of the sixteenth century, presented the same melancholy aspect as in other countries. There were circumstances which rendered improvement even less probable than in most of those which received the returning light of the gospel. While the simple character of the people afforded a ready opening to the appeals of superstition, their political condition still further favoured their close alliance with the papal court. Emancipated from the yoke of Germany, by as bold an effort as had ever been made by an oppressed people, they naturally became the ally of the Roman pontiffs against the power of the Emperors. This alliance was sedulously fostered by the Church; and no means were left unemployed which could tend to keep the Swiss in a state of servile obedience. Both Berne and Zurich set an example of complete subjection to its will; and as they formed the bulwark of the new confederacy, their advice was willingly adopted by most of the other cantons.
