The ReformationThe ReformationPeople start to want an individual
connection to GodThey start expressing displeasure
with the Catholic Church and its rules
Enter: Martin Luther
The 95 ThesesThe 95 ThesesGrievances with the churchMartin Luther posted on the
Wittenberg Church Door in 1522
THE PROTESTANT THE PROTESTANT REFORMATIONREFORMATION
Religious Reform movement that divided the western Church into Catholic and Protestant groups
No longer is western Europe united under one faith
Problems With The Problems With The ChurchChurchCorruption in the Catholic Church◦Many Church officials used their offices to advance their careers, wealth, and families Simony = the buying and selling of Church offices
Pluralism = having more than one office
Many local priests seemed ignorant of their spiritual duties, especially on instructing people on how to achieve salvation◦Salvation = acceptance into Heaven
The Church preached gaining indulgences by venerating saints, obtaining holy relics, or buying an indulgence certificate◦Indulgence = release from all or part of the punishment for sin
◦In the 1500s archbishop Albert of Mainz started selling indulgences to pay off the large loan he took out to buy the archbishopric
Most people found the Church unconcerned with their spiritual needs
Erasmus and Christian Erasmus and Christian HumanismHumanismBest known Christian humanist was Erasmus◦Wanted to educate people about Christianity and criticized the monks
◦Did not want to break away from the Church
“Erasmus laid the egg that Luther hatched”
Martin Luther and the 95 Martin Luther and the 95 ThesesTheses
Martin Luther was a monk and a professor at the University of Wittenberg
He was upset by the widespread selling of indulgences◦In 1517 Luther posted his 95 Theses on the door of the Church in Wittenberg
◦It attacked abuses in the Church, specifically the selling of indulgences
Luther rejected the Catholic teaching that both faith and good works were necessary for salvation◦He believed that salvation was through faith alone
Luther also declared that the only head of the Christian Church was Jesus and not the pope, and that individual Christians should be their own interpreters of scripture◦For all Protestants, the Bible, not the Church, became the primary source of religious truth
In response Pope Leo X excommunicated Luther
Luther was also summoned to appear before the imperial diet (legislative assembly) of the Holy Roman Empire at the city of Worms◦At the Diet of Worms Luther was asked by the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V and the pope’s ambassador to recant (take back) his teachings and opinions
◦Luther refused, saying he would only admit he was wrong if they could prove he was wrong using the Bible
◦The Edict of Worms made Luther an outlaw, but he was protected by his prince, Frederick of Saxony
Rise of LutheranismRise of LutheranismMartin Luther’s doctrines became known
as Lutheranism, the first Protestant faith◦Over the next few years, Luther’s religious movement became a revolution
◦By 1530 Lutheranism was a formally recognized branch of Christianity
Martin Luther was a social conservative
Politics in GermanyPolitics in GermanyGermany at this time was a land of several
hundred territorial states ruled by “princes”Many individual rulers of the German states
supported Luther and became Lutheran◦ They rebelled against the emperor, wanting
the right to be able to worshipTerms of the Peace of Augsburg
◦ It accepted the division of Christianity within Germany
◦ German states could choose between Catholicism or Lutheranism
◦ No religious tolerance for individuals – princes chose their subjects’ religion
Spread and Division of Spread and Division of ProtestantismProtestantismThe ideal of Christian unity was lost forever with the Peace of Augsburg and Lutheranism was the first of many Protestant religions
Calvinism was started by John Calvin after he fled to Switzerland from Catholic France◦He placed a new emphasis on the all-powerful nature of God
◦Predestination = God has determined in advance who will be saved (the elect) and who would be damned (the reprobate) God knows who the elect are before they are born
No amount of good works could change this
John Knox became the spokesman for the Reformation in Scotland◦Knox’s Reformed Church replaced the Roman Catholic Church in Scotland after years of religious turmoil
◦Eventually becomes the Presbyterian denomination
The Anabaptists believed in the complete separation of church and state◦They also believed in adult baptism since the true Christian church was a voluntary community of adult believers
◦Anabaptists were branded as dangerous radicals since rebaptizing adults was crime punishable by death
◦Later evolved into several religious factions, such as the Mennonites and the Amish Mennonites
The English ReformationThe English ReformationReformation in England was due to politics
and romance, not religionKing Henry VIII became king at age 17 in 1509
◦He was a devout Catholic who defended the Catholic Church against Luther and Erasmus
◦Earned the title “Defender of the Faith”◦Was married to Catherine of Aragon, a Spanish princess, who had been married to his older brother first before he died
◦The problem was that after years of marriage, the couple only had the princess Mary and Henry wanted a son – felt a female monarch would weaken England
Henry then met and fell in love with Anne Boleyn and decided he wanted to have his first marriage annulled (declared invalid)◦The pope refused, since he wouldn’t go against Catherine’s nephew, the Emperor Charles V
◦The king wanting to end his marriage was known as “the king’s great matter”
Henry summoned a Reformation Parliament, which declared that England was no longer under the authority of the pope◦Henry became the head of the Church of England Kept the new church closely tied to Catholicism
◦Henry also closed Catholic monasteries and took away Church lands
◦England’s church courts granted Henry a divorce and he married Anne, who then gave birth to Elizabeth
In 1534 the Parliament passed the Act of Supremacy, which stated that the king was the supreme head of the new Church of England◦Subjects had to take an oath declaring Henry the supreme head
◦His friend Thomas More opposed this and was beheaded
Henry was still Catholic and followed the Catholic teachings, but at his death in 1547, his nine-year old son Edward VI moved the Church of England in a more Protestant direction
In 1553, young Edward died and Mary, the daughter of Catherine of Aragon, became Queen◦She returned England to the authority of the pope and had Protestants burned at the stake
◦So many people were killed she earned the nickname “Bloody Mary”
When Mary died, Elizabeth became Queen◦Tired of all the religious turmoil, Elizabeth broke with Rome and established a moderate Protestant Church of England
◦She did not persecute people for their religious beliefs
◦Some Catholics plotted to kill Elizabeth and replace her with Mary, Queen of the Scots
The Catholic ReformationThe Catholic ReformationThe Catholic Church responded to the spread
of Protestantism by beginning a series of reforms, also known as the Counter-Reformation
Formed new religious orders whose members worked to reform the Church◦The most influential was formed by a Spanish nobleman named Ignatius of Loyola
Ignatius of Loyola founded the Society of Jesus, better known as the Jesuits◦Took a vow of obedience to the church and pope
◦Concentrated on education to spread their message
◦The Jesuits established missions, schools, and universities and were successful in restoring Catholicism to parts of Germany and Eastern Europe
The Council of Trent convened by Pope Paul III◦Met on and off from 1545 to 1563◦One goal was to examine criticisms made by Protestants and look at Protestant theology In the end, they rejected all Protestant ideas and upheld Catholic theologyBoth faith and good works were needed for salvation, the clergy could not marry, belief in purgatory, and the seven sacraments were upheld
There would be no compromise between Catholicism and Protestantism
◦Another goal was to address reform within the Church Addressed the corruption of the clergy, the training of priests became regulated, and the sale of indulgences was abolished
◦The council was a great boost to Catholicism and many Catholics had renewed confidence in the Church
Two other things the Catholic Church did to combat the spread of Protestantism was establish the Roman Inquisition and the Index of Prohibited books (list of books that Catholics were forbidden to read, such as Erasmus, Luther, and Galileo)
