Download or read book German and Scandinavian Protestantism 1700 1918 written by Nicholas Hope and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 1995-11-09 with total page 685 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first history in English of the Lutheran Church in Germany and Scandinavia in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. A period of fundamental and lasting change in the political landscape with the separation of the old twin monarchies of Sweden-Finland and Denmark-Norway in Scandinavia (1808, 1814), and the unification of Germany (1866-71), this was also a time of particular unease and upheaval for the church. Attempts to emulate the spiritual community of the early church, reform of the church establishment, and steps taken to enlighten parishioners were almost always held back by the anomalous structural legacy of the Reformation, tradition, and parish habit, sacred and profane. However, the birth of the modern nation-state and its market economy posed a fundamental challenge to the structure and ethos of the Reformation churches, as it did to the Catholic Church. The First World War deepened the crisis further: German Protestants (and the Scandinavians were not immune either, although they remained neutral), who bracketed modernity with crisis and religion with national renewal, and who saw national loyalty as a higher value than the faith, fellowship, and moral order of the church, were swept up into the maw of a modern national war machine which threatened to wipe out Protestantism altogether.
Download or read book Demonizing the Jews written by Christopher J. Probst and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acquiescence of the German Protestant churches in Nazi oppression and murder of Jews is well documented. In this book, Christopher J. Probst demonstrates that a significant number of German theologians and clergy made use of the 16th-century writings by Martin Luther on Jews and Judaism to reinforce the racial anti-semitism and religious anti-Judaism already present among Protestants. Focusing on key figures, Probst's study makes clear that a significant number of pastors, bishops, and theologians of varying theological and political persuasions employed Luther's texts with considerable effectiveness in campaigning for the creation of a "de-Judaized" form of Christianity. Probst shows that even the church most critical of Luther's anti-Jewish writings reaffirmed the anti-semitic stereotyping that helped justify early Nazi measures against the Jews.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to the remarkable journey through the life and legacy of one of history's most influential figures, Martin Luther—the Father of Protestantism. In the pages that follow, we will embark on a voyage into the world of a man whose actions and ideas reshaped the course of Christianity and the Western world. As we delve into the life of Martin Luther, you'll discover a man whose story is both inspiring and thought-provoking. Born on November 10, 1483, in Eisleben, Germany, Martin Luther's early years were marked by the tumultuous times of the Renaissance and the late medieval period. Little did the world know that this humble son of a miner would go on to challenge the religious and political authorities of his time, setting in motion a chain of events that would forever alter the religious landscape. Luther's journey takes us through the hallowed halls of the University of Erfurt, where he began his education and laid the groundwork for his future endeavors. It was here that his intellectual curiosity and passion for theology began to flourish. But it was a fateful event during a thunderstorm in 1505 that changed the course of Luther's life. Seeking divine protection during a lightning storm, he vowed to become a monk if spared. Keeping true to his word, Luther entered the Augustinian monastery in Erfurt and embarked on a life of devotion and contemplation. Our journey continues with Luther's ordination as a priest, his pilgrimage to Rome, and his appointment as a professor of theology at the University of Wittenberg. It was at Wittenberg that the sparks of reform began to ignite, leading to the publication of the Ninety-Five Theses on October 31, 1517—a pivotal moment that reverberated through the annals of history. In the chapters that follow, we will explore Luther's battles, both theological and personal, as he faced excommunication, the Diet of Worms, and the monumental task of translating the New Testament into German. We will witness his marriage to Katharina von Bora, a former nun, and the publication of his foundational works, the Large Catechism and Small Catechism. This biography will guide you through Luther's impact on the formation of the Lutheran Church, his role in the Peace of Augsburg, and the enduring legacy of his translated Bible. We will examine his influence on education, the widespread printing of his works, and his lasting imprint on Christianity. As we explore Martin Luther's life, remember that this journey is not only about a historical figure but also about the profound changes he brought to the world. Through meticulous research and a passion for history, we will uncover the man behind the Reformation, a man whose legacy continues to shape the beliefs and practices of millions today. So, let's set sail on this voyage through time, as we unravel the story of Martin Luther—the man, the reformer, and the Father of Protestantism. Together, we'll gain a deeper understanding of his quotations, a summary of each chapter, and even explore visual illustrations and images to bring this captivating historical journey to life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Address to the Christian Nobility of the German Nation is one of the tracts written by Martin Luther in 1520. In this work, he defined for the first time the signature doctrines of the priesthood of all believers and the two kingdoms. After the church made a strong attempt at drawing distinct lines on saying who had authority in the spiritual sphere and its matters. This division of Christians into spheres motivated Luther to write on the "three walls" the "Romanists" created to protect themselves from reform: "Spiritual Power over Temporal" – The first wall of the "Romanists" that Luther criticized was that of the division of the spiritual and temporal state. "Authority to Interpret Scripture" – In the second part of the letter to the Christian nobility of the German nation, Luther debates the point that it is the Pope's sole authority to interpret, or confirm interpretation of, scriptures "Authority to Call a Council" – The final part to Luther's letter is the largest demonstration of his desire to see authority in control over the spiritual sphere shift to the temporal sphere.
