Description: An excellent short history, from Zwingli to Karl Barth.
World Alliance od Reformed Churches A Short History of the Reformed Churches The Reformed Protestant Reformation began in Switzerland. In 1522 during Lent a big sausage-eating event was organized. The people's priest from Zurich Ulrich Zwingli defended the sausage-meal thus: The law of fasting is a human law and therefore not necessarily valid. Only divine laws are to be obeyed unconditionally by man, but Zwingli finds the divine laws in the Bible. This shows a characteristic feature of Reformed theology which has been maintained to this day: the emphasis on the Bible's witness as important for faith and life. Sola scriptura, solely the Bible, this rates very highly with Reformed Protestants.
