Was The Reformation A Mistake?

Was The Reformation A Mistake?

Was the Reformation a mistake?






In its actual historical context, it hardly seems fair to call the
Reformation a mistake." In 1517, the Church was in need of a " spiritual and theological reform. The issues raised by Renaissance humanism -
and by the profound corruption of the Church's leaders, the Avignon papacy,
and the Great Schism in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries - lingered
unresolved. What were key theological problems that led to the Reformation?






Theologian Matthew Levering helps readers see these questions from a
Catholic perspective. Surveying nine key themes - Scripture, Mary, the
Eucharist, the Seven Sacraments, monasticism, justification and merit,
purgatory, saints, and papacy - he examines the positions of Martin Luther and
makes a case that the Catholic position is biblically defensible once one
allows for the variety of biblically warranted modes of interpreting Scripture.
At the same time, Levering makes clear that he cannot prove" the " Catholic case.






The book concludes with a spirited response by mere " Protestant theologian Kevin J. Vanhoozer.
