  • Huldrych Zwingli and His City of Zurich*
    Andrews Uniuersity Seminary Studies, Summer 1985, Vol. 23, No. 2, 143-1150, Copyright @ 1985 by Andrews University Press. HULDRYCH ZWINGLI AND HIS CITY OF ZURICH* ULRICH GABLER Free University of Amsterdam Amsterdam, The Netherlands One of the most fascinating aspects of Huldrych Zwingli's life is its multi-faceted character.' From the beginning of his work in Zurich in 1519, Zwingli became more and more active in a variety of roles and came to be involved in the most divergent issues. For the biographer, this situation creates considerable difficulty in find- ing the real thread of Zwingli's life and activity, if there is truly any such. Where, for instance, is the center in 1526 (if I may choose an arbitrary year) for a person engaged in the following tasks?: parish priest at the Grossmiinster, the main church of Zurich; a com- mentator and translator of the OT at the "Prophezei," * the Bible school; and expositor of the NT at the Fraumiinster, the second most important church of the city; a weekly preacher there; a theologian in the conflict with Luther about the Lord's Supper; a polemicist against Johannes Eck in the controversy over church authority; a defender of his own work against the Anabaptists; the "brain" behind the plan for a war against the Catholics in +Adapted and revised from a paper presented at Andrews University on May 9, 1984, and submitted as an article in the original Dutch to the Nederlands Archief voor Kerkgeschiedenis under the title "Huldrych Zwingli in zijn milieu" (forth- coming, as of the present writing).

  • What Did Huldrych Zwingli Achieve for the Swiss Reformation?
    What did Huldrych Zwingli achieve for the Swiss Reformation? Roger Porter Department of Theology Flinders University Abstract Huldrych Zwingli was a key figure in the Swiss Reformation. It was concluded that recognition of his contribution has, over time, dissipated and largely unacknowledged. Further research into Zwingli studies is warranted, highly recommended and already long overdue. Introduction: The Genesis of the Swiss Reformation The events of the Swiss Reformation were significantly influenced by Huldrych 1 Zwingli (1484-1531). His tragic death on the front line of a Swiss civil war in 1531 ended a career vitally important to the Protestant Reformation in Europe and abroad. Nevertheless, Zwingli was the only major reformer of the 16 th century whose vision and movement, despite his momentous achievements, did not develop into a church. Although defects of disjointedness and intellectualism mark his writings behind them lay an open, warm and friendly disposition, embodying a courageously arresting attempt to rethink all Christian doctrine in consistently biblical terms. This essay will illustrate how Huldrych Zwingli’s achievements were pivotal to the success of the Swiss Reformation, and the Reformation in general. His accomplishments will be noted in their various time periods together with the relevant historical events. It will be argued that, jointly with Martin Luther and John Calvin, Zwingli was a key individual in the 16 th century Reformation, and that his achievements contributed significantly to this momentous event in European history. Firstly, the key achievements of Huldrych Zwingli will be noted. These include (1) his breaking with Rome in 1522 by rejecting the Catholic co-ordination of scripture and tradition, (2) his replacing the Catholic mass in 1525 with the first Reformed communion service in the Zurich Great Minster Church and (3) his spreading the Swiss Reformation to other German and Italian Cantons of Switzerland.

Meanwhile, other forms of Protestantism were developing elsewhere in Europe. Martin Luther had launched the Reformation in northern Germany, but reformers were at work in other countries. In Switzerland, another major branch of Protestantism emerged. Based mainly on the teachings of John Calvin, a French follower of Luther, it promoted unique ideas about the relationship between people and God.

  • DOCTRINE of ORIGINAL SIN in the EVANGELICAL REFORMERS T a Noble
    DOCTRINE OF ORIGINAL SIN IN THE EVANGELICAL REFORMERS T A Noble The ‘Evangelical’ Reformers are those giants of Christian history who reformed the Church Catholic (or at least part of it) in the sixteenth century. We conventionally call them the Protestant Reformers, but ‘Protestant’ was from its beginning a political word signifying those princes of the Holy Roman Empire who banded together to make their protest at the Diet of Speyer. The more appropriate theological term is Luther’s own term, ‘Evangelical’, referring to those who sought to reform the life and theology of the one holy, Catholic Church according to the Evangel—the Gospel. That is a significant starting point in a paper which sets out to examine the Reformers’ doctrine of original sin, for it reminds us that original sin was not their starting point or foundation. It was rather for them a doctrine which was implied by the Gospel. LUTHER We begin with a study of Luther, and with the picturesque passage from the Table Talk brought to our attention by Paul M. Bassett: The original sin in a man is like his beard, which, though shaved off today so that a man is very smooth around his mouth, yet grows again by tomorrow morning. As long as a man lives, such growth of hair and beard does not stop. But when the shovel slaps the ground on his grave, it stops. In just this way, original sin remains in us and exercises itself as long as we live, but we must resist it and always be cutting off its hair.1 Before we conclude that Luther is a virulent feminist (since having no beards, women presumably have no original sin!), we have to remind ourselves that this is ‘table talk’, picturesque speech, metaphor.

  • Hermeneutics and Exegesis in the Early Eucharistic Controversy
    HERMENEUTICS AND EXEGESIS IN THE EARLY EUCHARISTIC CONTROVERSY Amy Nelson Burnett Translation, exegesis, and hermeneutics were closely intertwined in the sixteenth century.* If Scripture was the ultimate source of religious author- ity, it must not only be available in a language that was widely understood, but its contents must be explained correctly and in a way that accorded with the fundamental tenets of the Christian faith. While all evangelicals agreed that the Bible should be translated into the language of the people, they did not necessarily agree either on the proper exegesis of specifijic pas- sages or on the hermeneutical principles according to which that exegesis was done. This disagreement is most obvious with regard to the Scripture verses related to the Eucharist. All participants in the debate over the Lord’s Supper could draw on a long exegetical tradition for those passages that concerned the sacrament, extending from the church fathers through the scholastic theologians of the late Middle Ages. Heretical groups such as the Waldensians, the Lollards, and various Hussite factions also cited Scripture to defend their understanding of the sacrament; their ideas cir- culated in Germany and Switzerland on the eve of the Reformation and were incorporated into the evangelical debate as well.1 * The following abbreviations have been used: ASD: Desiderius Erasmus, Opera Omnia Desiderii Erasmi Roterodami, Elsevier, Amsterdam, 1969-; CS: Kaspar Schwenckfeld, Corpus Schwenckfeldianorum, Breitkopf and Härtel, Leipzig, 1907–1961; CWE: Desiderius Erasmus, Collected Works of Erasmus, University of Toronto Press, Toronto, 1974-; EPK: Amy Nelson Burnett (ed.), The Eucharistic Pamphlets of Andreas Bodenstein von Karlstadt, Truman State University Press, Kirksville MO, 2011; HZW: Edward J.

  • Luther and Zwingli at Marburg (1529) Evangelical Theological Soci
    Defining the Boundaries of Evangelicalism in the 16th Century: Luther and Zwingli at Marburg (1529) Evangelical Theological Society November 14-16, 2001 Cameron A. MacKenzie Concordia Theological Seminary - Ft. Wayne, IN Do Evangelicals like to fight? One would almost think so given the number of controversies that have marred the story of the modern Evan- gelical movement – Calvinists vs. Arminians, pre-millennialists vs. post, egalitarians vs. complementarians, and, of course, open theists vs. tradi- tional theists. A moment’s reflection, however, suggests that it is not a delight in polemics per se that has motivated all these folks through the ages and in our own times too but instead, ironically, something that they all have in common, viz., a commitment to truth. Evangelicals of all stripes believe that there is such a thing as truth in matters religious, and that it is important – so important that one is willing not only to con- tend for it in this life but also to stand upon it before the Lord in the next. For He who has revealed Himself as the Way, the Truth, and the Life calls upon all of us to be faithful to His truth. But if controversies among Evangelicals demonstrate one common commitment, can they reveal others? And if we are looking for the boun- daries of the Evangelical movement, can analysis of past debates reveal parameters within which combatants were operating? To be sure, the Scriptures must ultimately determine what it means to be “evangelical”; but perhaps historical analysis can highlight characteristics of our movement that we might otherwise miss.

  • Pentecostal Aspects of Early Sixteenth Century Anabaptism

Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract Early sixteenth century radical Anabaptism emanated in Switzerland during Huldrych Zwingli’s protest against the Roman Catholic Church. Much like Martin Luther, Zwingli founded his reform effort on the Bible being the final arbiter of the faith, sola scriptura, and the sufficiency of the shed blood of Christ plus nothing for eternal salvation, sola fide. Based on these principles both adopted the doctrine of the Priesthood of the Believer which recognized every believer’s Spirit empowered ability to read and interpret the Bible for themselves. These initial theological tenets resulted in the literal reading of the Bible and a very pragmatic Christian praxis including a Pauline pneumatology that recognized the efficacy of the manifestation of the charismata. Radical adherents of Zwingli rejected infant baptism as being totally unbiblical and insisted upon the rebaptism of adults, but only on a personal confession of faith, thus the term Anabaptist.

THE SUPPER THAT SUPPOSEDLY SPLIT THE REFORMATION: THE EUCHARIST CONTROVERSY BETWEEN HULDRYCH ZWINGLI AND MARTIN LUTHER By Jacob A. Clayton On March 15, 1529, various German princes and representatives of the Holy Roman Empire (HRE) attended the second Diet of Speyer. This meeting dealt with the political upheavals rising from the religious movements of Martin Luther and others. The Diet decided to suppress these religious movements in order to restore Catholicism to the various principalities of the Holy Roman Empire.1 However, the leaders of fourteen cities signed a protest and appeal because they were a part of the new religious movements. Thus, the other Catholic leaders called the dissenting leaders “Protestants.”2 Philip of Hesse, one of the Protestant leaders, wanted to unite all Protestants in order to counter the papal forces.

Volume 7, Number 1 8 II Zwinglianism: Stepping Out of Luther’s Shadow By Sarah Bischoff ‘08 As a theologian during the Swiss Reformation, Huldrych Zwingli is often overshadowed by the achievements and success of Martin Luther’s Protestant movement. Bom less than two months apart from each other, both men were significant figures during the Renaissance and each advocated his own specific theology. It has been believed that Zwingli was greatly influenced by Luther’s written texts and relied on them when forming his own religious program. However, Zwingli’s own spiritual transformation was a result of several different influences in his life. He did not read much, if any, of Luther’s writings until after this turning point. Instead, “Zwingli’s development was determined by the (changing) circumstances in Zurich, the news about the exciting events concerning Luther (for example, at the Diet of Worms), and his own reading of the Bible, the church fathers, and contemporary literature.”1 Patriotism, scholasticism, and the humanists, especially Erasmus, had a great impact on him.
