The Magdeburg Confession: Defending the Church from Tyranny
Manage episode 417475677 series 3472993
It's 1550. A generation has passed since the Reformation swept across Europe like a wildfire.
The Catholic Church has launched the Counter-Reformation, a multi-layered initiative to restore the continent to its former Roman glory. One step of this plan in Germany is to recognize the cities that have fallen into the clutches of Lutheranism and coerce their return to the Church.
Suddenly the town of Magdeburg has an urgent question to answer: what is the responsibility of the local magistrate to defend the church from a violent military threat?
Let's talk about it! Join Tommy and John as we impress all of our Lutheran pals.
