Protestant Reformation or Revolution?

Steve Weidenkopf2019-02-20T22:32:26

Five hundred years ago Christendom was cut to pieces. How should we think about this period and the men who led the revolt?

Questions Covered:

  • 19:54 - I’m looking for an answer to the objection some protestants give that the Catholic Church was created in 325 AD.
  • 23:56 - Hilaire Belloc said something about the fracturing of society during the Protestant Reformation which increased individualism. Is Belloc right about what happened and can his analysis be applied today?
  • 32:27 - What was the origin of Luther’s anti-Semitism?
  • 37:30 - What eventually happened to the Protestant Reformers? Were they ran out of the Church? Can they go to heaven?
  • 44:22 - When did the Catholic Church translate the Bible into the vernacular?
  • 48:23 - I read that the word Protestant doesn’t come from a general protest against Catholicism but from a protest against a particular law. Is this true?
  • 51:40 - I have an Orthodox friend who says they are the first Church. How would I rebut this?
