A Candid Inquiry into the Controversies among Evangelicals · §305

Annotatio VI §.II open: Posterior Class authors — Brenz, Andreae, Hunnius; Flacius mode; Formula of Concord swearers

Click or tap any sentence to jump there. The side buttons skip a paragraph.

§. II. The posterior class has, for the hottest points, Brenz on the ubiquity or omnipresence of Christ’s body, Andreae on oral manducation of that body added on top, and Hunnius on predestination from foreseen faith.

For the harsher style of fight it has Flacius Illyricus’s disciples — a most restless ingenuity.

In a word: those who (if not all, then most) bind themselves to the Formula of Concord’s words — even the damnatory ones — as tightly as to Holy Scripture itself.

Latin
