What is the Protestant Reformation?
Protestant Reformation- a religious
movement in the 1500’s that split the
Christian church in western Europe and led
to the establishment of a number of new
churches.
– People grew displeased with the churches…
• Financial Corruption
• Abuse of Power
• Immorality
What happens to spark the Reformation?
Pope Leo X needs money
to build St. Peter’s
Basilica…so he sells
indulgences!
– Indulgences- were pardons
issued by the pope that
people could buy to reduce
a soul’s time in purgatory
= (People could buy
forgiveness)
– Martin Luther’s Ninety
Five Theses
Language Barriers
Most uneducated people didn’t understand
Latin, but knew the local common language
or “vernacular”.
– Almost all Bibles were written in LATIN
before the Reformation.
It was the job of the church clergy to
translate the Bible to lay people.
Martin Luther
Luther was a German
monk and professor of
theology (religion) at the
University of Wittenberg.
One of the many leaders
of the Protestant
Reformation.
– Luther objected to a
saying attributed to Johann
Tetzel that "As soon as the
coin in the coffer rings, the
soul from purgatory
springs."
Luther’s 95 Theses
In 1517, the 95 Theses were nailed to a
church door. They were written in Latin.
– Luther’s intention: NOT TO BREAK WITH
CHURCH, BUT REFORM IT!
– Criticized:
1.Indulgences
2.Power of Pope
3.Wealth of Church
God’s Grace won by FAITH ALONE!
– Catholic View: Good Works
Excommunication
In 1520 Pope Leo X excommunicated
Luther.
– Excommunication- expelled him from the
church.
– Holy Roman Emperor Charles V passed
measures to suppress Luther’s writings.
– Lutheran princes in Germany issued a
protestatio or protest.
• Hence the term Protestant!
Other Reformations
Ulrich Zwingli in Switzerland
– Theocracy
• A government in which church and state are joined and in
which officials are considered to be divinely inspired.
John Calvin in Switzerland
– Predestination
• God knows who will be saved, even before people are born,
and therefore guides the lives of those destined fore salvation.
John Knox in Scotland
– Laid grounds for Presbyterian Church
In England, the Reformation began
with the King!
King Henry VIII
– The king who had six wives…
• He wants a SON!
Lines provided in notes to write down
story of King Henry VIII.
The Reformation Parliament

England was no longer under the authority
of the pope.

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Lived in Bohemia (Modern Day Czech Republic) Eucharist (Catholic Sacrament commemorating the Last Supper by consecrating bread and wine) The last words of John Hus were that, “in 100 years, God will raise up a man whose calls for reform cannot be suppressed.” Almost exactly 100 years later, in 1517, Martin Luther nailed his famous 95 Theses.
  2. Like the Kindle or Nook to early modern Europeans. A single Renaissance printing press could produce 3,600 pages per workday, compared to forty by hand-printing and a few by hand-copying.
  3. Luther translates the Bible to German and believes that people should be able to interpret the Bible for themselves. Coffer means chest
  4. Pope Leo X by Raphel
  5. King Henry’s older brother Arthur (named after the famous tale King Author and the Knights of the Round Table) dies… Author was married to Catherine of Argon (from Spain) before she married Henry. This becomes the grounds for his annulment (because Catherine can’t produce a son). She does however give birth to a daughter named Mary. She later becomes a queen of England and restores the Catholic Church! History knows her as Bloody Mary. Catherine of Aragon, Henry's first wife.  Catherine, a Princess of Spain, was married to Henry for many years.  Her determination to stay married to Henry, in the face of his desire for Anne Boleyn, would change the course of history forever. Anne Boleyn, Henry's second wife, and the mother of Queen Elizabeth I.  Henry fell passionately in love with Anne while married to Catherine of Aragon.  He waited several years to marry Anne, but, ironically, lost his desire for her once she became his Queen. Jane Seymour, Henry's beloved third Queen.  Gentle, capable Jane gave Henry his long-awaited male heir after one year of marriage.  Sadly, she gave her life to do so. Anne of Cleves, Henry's fourth wife.  This German princess served as Queen for only a few months before she and Henry agreed to divorce by mutual consent. Katherine Howard, Henry's fifth wife.  Henry's marriage to this sensuous teenager brought him brief happiness, but ended in tragedy.  Katherine Parr, Henry's sixth Queen.  This intelligent, loyal, forward-thinking Renaissance woman outlived three husbands, including Henry, and went on to finally marry the man of her choice.
