The Root of World History:
The next 3 Centuries: Bite 21)
As told by Clarence Walker:
This awakening of a long-dormant conscience and a desire for a genuine Reformation is rooted in the 13th century around the mid-1200’s. The next three centuries are among the most eventful in all the world’s history. This is especially true in Christian history. There was almost a constant revolution inside the Catholic Church. Both Romans and Greeks were seeking a reformation. Most historians indicate the start of the Reformation to begin at that Great Council meeting in 1245 AD. Let’s look backward just a little. The Catholic Church, by its departure from the New Testament teachings, its many strange and cruel laws, and its low state of morals with its hands and clothes reeking with the blood of martyrs has become obnoxious and repulsive to many of its adherents who are far better than their own systems of laws and doctrines. several of their own Priests, the bravest and most spiritual leaders, one by one, sought earnestly to reform the bad laws and return to the New Testament teaching.
Striking Examples: Bite 22)
As told by Clarence Walker:
The Leaders of the Reformation had been Catholic Priests. Inside the Catholic (heretical) Church is where the reformatory fires began. There was even yet a little of good in the much evil. However, at the time, there was not one solitary unmarred doctrine of the New Testament retained in its original purity. It is well to note that for many centuries prior to the Reformation period there was a number of noted characters who rebelled against the awful extremes of the Catholics and earnestly sought to remain loyal to the Bible, but a bloody trail was all that was left of them. One striking example is a man who lived from 1320 to 1384. He lived in England and attracted worldwide attention. His name was John Wycliffe. He was the first who had the courage to attempt a real reformation inside the Catholic Church. History names him the Morningstar of the Reformation.
Brief Sketches of Reformers: Bite 23)
As told by Clarence Walker:
John Wycliffe had an earnest and effective life. He was fiercely hated by the top officials of the Catholic Hierarchy. His life was constantly sought for. He died of paralysis but later the court condemned him and dug up his bones to be burned. Close to Wycliff comes John Huss 1373 to 1415. ...A distinguished one from far away Bohemia. His was a brave and eventful life but painfully and sadly short. He was a martyr, even among his own people. He was burned at the stake on his 42nd Birthday and denied the request to speak with his wife before he was burned. He was one of many millions exterminated by burning at the stake. Then there was a wonderful Son of Italy, Savonarola, 1452 to 1498. Like Huss, he was a devout Catholic and Leader of his people. He too was burned at the stake but he aroused the people of the corruption of the Catholic Church. Of course, there are many who can not be mentioned but God knows and remembers them all.
Martin Luther was probably one of the most noted of the 15th and 16th-century Reformers. He lived from 1483 to 1546: Probably far more than history states, these great predecessors have in a great measure, made it easier for his hard ways set before him. Luther learned that reforming the Catholic Church would be impossible. So after many hard battles with the leaders of Catholicism, he founded the Lutheran Church of Germany in 1530. this was the first of the new organizations to come directly out of Rome and renounce all allegiance to the Catholic Mother Church. (PL Sturgis: Luther nailed 95 theses to the Catholic Church Door and left or was excommunicated. I believe he left on his own.)
From 1509 to 1564 there lived another great reformer. This was John Calvin. He was a Frenchmen, though at that time he was living in Switzerland. He was a mighty man and a contemporary of Martin Luther for 30 years. Calvin is the accredited founder of the Presbyterian Church. Unquestionably, the work of Luther and Zwingli made the work of Calvin much easier. So in 1541 the Presbyterian Church, as well as the Lutheran Church, was led by a former Catholic Priest. These reformers in the great battle for Reformation struck Catholicism a great blow. In 1560, nineteen years after Calvin’s first organization in Geneva, Switzerland, John Knox, a disciple of Calvin, established the first Presbyterian Church in Scotland. Then in 1592, just 32 years later, the Presbyterian became the State church of Scotland. During these hard years of struggle, continuous aid was given to the Reformers by many Anabaptists or whatever other names the Christians bore.
