Yeah, a lot of them are the reasons why Christianity has been split up into so many stupid denominations.

Martin Luthor nailed his 95 theses to a church door a started the protestant movement for real. Augustine was a famous early Church saint who was a pretty awesome guy personally if you can believe his confessions. He really knew how to live it up.

I got some German guy who was apparently obsessed with evil (or at least that's what the blurb said). I think it was because I answered strongly disagree to nearly all the questions.

Martin Luther is the hero of the Protestant Faith. He defied the RCC in 1517 by nailing thesis to the church door. Many movies including a fairly recent one in the local theaters have been done on him.

He managed to break loose of the church he once loved. He was a Priest who opened up the bible and found out things in there that went against what the church was teaching. He was a man of anguish. He couldn't please God deeply enough as he was deeply aware of his own sin and of God's holiness. He was driven to study the scriptures.

While reading Paul's epistles Luther realized that the word "righteousness" means not only the condition of being righteous but also the act of declaring someone to be righteous. God not only is righteous. God can also give righteousness to sinners. This he found out was God's gift, given to every person who trusts Jesus Christ as Savior. The verse that most spoke to his heart was "The just shall live by faith." Rom 1:17 So he went about to make changes in the RCC he loved so much but his words were not accepted. In fact it set off a loud explosion heard all over the world. On Oct 31, 1517 Luther nailed his theses on the chapel door in Wittenberg. It didn't go over well.

John Calvin also was a Catholic. He angered the French government with a speech he wrote peppered with quotes from Luther and found himself fleeing for his life. He became a Protestant also. Calvin ended up in Geneva Switzerland. While in Switzerland he wrote the first systematic summary of Protestant theoology "Institutes of the Christian Religion." He was forced to leave the city and found refuge in Strasbourg. There he cared for "French Protestants (Huguenots) who like Calvin had fled because of persecution. Calvin ended back at Geneva when this city needed someone to debate a RC thinker. It's said that when Calvin returned to his pulpit that he had to flee from three years before everyone in Geneva expected a severe rebuke. He did not preach the expected sermon. Instead he began to preach exactly where he had stopped without a trace of spite.

Of note: Calvin, Luther and Zwingli never escaped the idea that the church and the government could mingle.
I have all his commentaries and use them from time to time. I also have Luther's biography "Here I Stand."

Anselm


I have no idea who this guy is.

Ok, I just took the test. I thought it was good. Some of the questions I've been debating right here on JU.

I came out with Karl Barth who is a fairly new name to me but was introduced to him just recently. This is what it said about him:

You scored as a Karl Barth
The daddy of 20th Century theology. You perceive liberal theology to be a disaster and so you insist that the revelation of Christ, not human experience, should be the starting point for all theology.

These are the others. I guess I'll have to do a search on Anselm since I seem to agree with him so much.

You scored as Friedrich Schleiermacher, You seek to make inner feeling and awareness of God the centre of your theology, which is the foundation of liberalism. Unfortunately, atheists are quick to accuse you of simply projecting humanity onto 'God' and liberalism never really recovers.
