11. REFORMATION OR REVOLUTION? The Protestant Uprising

12. Protestant Reformation…OR Revolution? Reformation:  To reform something from within, to make it better Revolution:  To destroy & replace the old with something new & completely different Martin Luther is the man who started Protestantism, but what did he advocate? Reformation or Revolution?

13. What Luther Actually Said… “I have cast the die; I now despise the rage of the [Catholic Church] as much as I do their favor. I will not reconcile myself to them for all eternity, nor have anything to do with them. Let them condemn & burn all that belongs to me. In return, I also will do as much for them; otherwise I could not kindle the fire that is to condemn & burn, before the eyes of the worlds, the whole Papal system” (Letter to his friend Spalatian, 1520) “If I succeed in doing away with the Mass, then I shall believe I have completely conquered the Pope. If the sacrilegious & cursed custom of the Mass is overthrown, then the whole must fall” (Letter to Henry VIII, 1522) Luther was advocating revolution, not reform!

15. Luther’s Teaching Catholic Church’s Teaching Sola scriptura  “Scripture alone,” the idea that the only authoritative source of divine revelation is Scripture Sola fide:  “Faith alone,” the idea that one is saved/justified solely through faith Baptism & Eucharist are the only sacraments Denied that humans have free will Scripture and Tradition Faith & Good Works Christ instituted 7 sacraments God gave us the gift of free will Luther’s Revolutionary Plan
