Middle Ages 500-1000 1 3 The Dark Age Church Period of Barbarian Invasions AD 500—1000 Introduction With the endorsement of the Emperor and obligatory church membership for all Roman citizens across the empire, Roman Christianity continued to change the nature of the Church, in stead of visa versa. The humble beginnings were soon forgotten in the luxurious halls and civil power of the highest courts and assemblies of the known world. Who needs spiritual power when you can have civil power? The transition from being the persecuted to the persecutor, from the powerless to the powerful with Imperial and divine authority brought with it the inevitable seeds of corruption. Some say that Christianity won the known world in the first five centuries, but a closer look may reveal that the world had won Christianity as well, and that, in much less time. The year 476 usually marks the end of the Christian Roman Empire in the West.

  • The First Eight General Councils and Papal Infallibility
    THE FIRST EIGHT GENERAL COUNCILS AND PAPAL INFALLIBITY BY DOM JOHN CHAPMAN, O.S.B. LONDON CATHOLIC TRUTH SOCIETY 69 SOUTIIWARK BRIDGE ROAD, S.E. 1906 PREFACE These pages are simply a lecture delivered on May 15, 1906 before the Society of St. Thomas of Canterbury, "Students of the West." In accordance with the title of this Society, its members inquire into the views of others. After the lectures which are given at their invitation, a discussion follows. It is not to be presumed that members of the Society agree with what they hear. The Catholic Truth Society has kindly under taken to publish my lecture at my own request, as I hope that the historical' data I have put together may be found useful in this compact form. I am conscious that the subject was far too large for a single lecture, and that some of the views put forward may seem crude without more elaborate justification than a few references and notes. The part which deals with Dr. Dollinger and the Old Catholic movement was added by special request, and it may perhaps be regarded as somewhat of an excrescence. JOHN CHAPMAN, O.S.B.

  • Events of the Reformation Part 1 – Church Becomes Powerful Institution
    May 20, 2018 Events of the Reformation Protestants and Roman Catholics agree on first 5 centuries. What changed? Why did some in the Church want reform by the 16th century? Outline Why the Reformation? 1. Church becomes powerful institution. 2. Additional teaching and practices were added. 3. People begin questioning the Church. 4. Martin Luther’s protest. Part 1 – Church Becomes Powerful Institution Evidence of Rome’s power grab • In 2nd century we see bishops over regions; people looked to them for guidance. • Around 195AD there was dispute over which day to celebrate Passover (14th Nissan vs. Sunday) • Polycarp said 14th Nissan, but now Victor (Bishop of Rome) liked Sunday. • A council was convened to decide, and they decided on Sunday. • But bishops of Asia continued the Passover on 14th Nissan. • Eusebius wrote what happened next: “Thereupon Victor, who presided over the church at Rome, immediately attempted to cut off from the common unity the parishes of all Asia, with the churches that agreed with them, as heterodox [heretics]; and he wrote letters and declared all the brethren there wholly excommunicate.” (Eus., Hist. eccl. 5.24.9) Everyone started looking to Rome to settle disputes • Rome was always ending up on the winning side in their handling of controversial topics. 1 • So through a combination of the fact that Rome was the most important city in the ancient world and its bishop was always right doctrinally then everyone started looking to Rome. • So Rome took that power and developed it into the Roman Catholic Church by the 600s. Church granted power to rule • Constantine gave the pope power to rule over Italy, Jerusalem, Constantinople and Alexandria.

Three of the volumes described in the articles are carefully preserved in libraries. The whereabouts of the fourth volume is a mystery which has so far defied solution. 3 CONTENTS: PAGE THE MONASTIC LIBRARIES. 5 ST MARGARET’S GOSPEL BOOK. 8 ST JEROMES LATIN BIBLE. 13 A MISSING VOLUME. 17 4 The Monastic Libraries ____________ By N. F. DONALD, M.A. Chairman of Dunfermline Public Library Committee. ____________ Very little reliable information is available concerning the size of the collections of books in Scottish monasteries immediately before the Reformation. In a volume printed for private circulation by Ernest A. Savage we find that the seven Scottish monastic houses mentioned had in the thirteenth century a total of 454 volumes. Melrose had most with 96 volumes, while Dunfermline had 43; and though these, on present day standards, may appear to be very small collections, it must be remembered that the size of all medieval libraries was restricted by the fact that books had to be copied by hand and that the finest of them, the illuminated manuscripts, represent many months, even years, of assiduous labour.
