- Why did the Protestant Reformation Happen?
♦ The Protestant Reformation is widely known for Martin Luther’s publication of his “95 Theses” or “Disputation on the Power and Efficacy of Indulgences” and marks the second schism of sorts for the Catholic church. In reality, the reformation of western Christianity was long in the making, and Martin Luther was not its only leader…
While many view the start of the Protestant Reformation as having been in 1517 following the publication of Martin Luther’s theses, the actual date of its beginning is somewhat unclear. There were essentially three main reformation movements; one in Germany, one in England, and one in Switzerland - with all of them occurring around the same time in the 16th century.

Fun fact: The german dialect used in Luthers bible translation became the standard german we know today, because everybody had to learn it in order to read the Bible (and everybody had a bible at home).
If the Northern German Dialects had always been included in this official German language, Dutch and German would have been even a lot more similar.
only protestants did, the catholics banned people from reading their own bible until very recently but yeah that is correct
About the same in Estonia and wouldn`t be surprised if Skandinavia as well.
@@micahistory i dont think its banned from reading it, its just not really accessible to the people since creating bible was somewhat expensive before printing press and the bible also in latin so no peasant able to understand much i mean charlemagne did mass produce bible with no harm back in the days
@@yonathanrakau1783 true
Blaise Pascal once wrote:
"There are only two kinds of men: the righteous who think they are sinners and the sinners who think they are righteous"
and that's wrong. Because sin does not exist. Sin is just a political concept used to judge people who commit(ted) no crime
@@istvansipos9940 so you don't believe in morality? No right and wrong? So it is not sin to kill? To rape?
@@Ahmad-nf9ez it is bad, very bad, immoral to rape some1. thus, humans agreed to make rape a crime. can you define sin for me? because the concept of a crime is clear.
@@istvansipos9940 Sin literally means "to miss the mark" and are a way of describing when something is not going fully as it was meant.
@@JamesAsp that's very non-biblical. I don't mind that at all. But the "missing the mark" part is very vague. A girl likes me, I don't realize it (because I am 14 in this story), then I realize it too late.
Was this a sin then? It sure was a waste.
More importantly, then homosexuality (usually considered a "sin") is not a sin. F.e. 2 men do NOT miss the mark, and then they love eachother exactly as they meant to love eachother.
The reformation was beginning before Luther or Calvin came on the scene. Both the Waldensians (c. 1173) originating in Lyons and the Hussites in Bohemia (c. 1415) preceded them. The Hussites fought a war against Catholics and ended up winning that fight, and practiced their own faith in the Czech region for a couple of hundred years, until the Thirty Years War rolled through (now they are known as the Moravian church).
They did not reform the Catholic Church, they actually revolted against it. The result of this revolt is that the Catholics decided to reform their church. Something was lost in the translation.
Really outstanding video, thank you! I love filling in the gaps in my knowledge with videos like this.
This is big fat lie video, the catholic church never ever thought that for money and paper your sins will be forgiven , unfortunately Protestantism is based on lies .
I believe a very important detail was left out. Namely the local counts and princes in Germany were supposed to pay heavy dues to the Catholic Church (also because St. Peters was being built at the time) and they were very annoyed about this. Luther gave them the perfect excuse to stick it to the Pope, so when Luther kickstarted the Reform and defied the church, the local princes and counts gave him protection from the church with the very nice side effect of not having to pay the hefty dues anymore. Of course this led to war at some point so... I guess we all must live with our choices.
The leaders paid their dues because of the fear of being excommunicated, ie condemned to hell for eternity, after death of course.
The marriages between powerful Spain and the heads of the Holy Roman Empire (Austria) worried a lot Northern European monarchs, too. These had great influence in Italy, at the time, with great access to the Pope. The balance of power in Europe cannot be overlooked.
Good one, Marius. But as spiritual as Martin Luther was he did very little for repairing the 1,200-year damage to Christianity created by the church and their mangling of scripture in their egoistic urge to find a "fixed" meaning.

The Catholic church is the oldest and largest criminal organization on this planet...😊

think about it
As a Lutheranian I have at least two Bibles in my house, my grand parents (that I have inherit) and modern bible (new paper, more robust), and it is written in my language.
You need to add! The Reformation began before Luther was a twinkle in his mother's eye. John Wycliffe was 150 years before Luther and a few hundred Bibles were hand written by volunteer scribes, some of which survive to this day. Wycliffe taught at Oxford and had the patronage of John of Gaunt. He also taught some Bohemians the Word of God and they later became the Hussites. He had his own movement in England too. The Lollards. Wycliffe was called "The Morning Star of the Reformation"
Yes, I seem to remember Wycliffe being spoken about in my history lessons at school. The American commentators always seem to miss things out on English history.
Maybe they ought to stick to their own.
@@Saxondog indeed so. It has struck me as odd that usually, to attain entry to university one needs to demonstrate that the applicant has the ability to study and seek out sources of information that will critique or confirm what they are being taught in lectures. If this is maintained, well and good. Otherwise universities and colleges are becoming sources of indoctrination.
Bias against England may have its roots in two sources in the USA. Firstly the Revolutionary War (of Independence) and the War of 1812 (mainly naval) added to the culture of Irish immigrants carrying their bitterness from the ill treatment of Irish people by English and local landlords in the 19th Century during the Potato Blight. However, truth should never be a casualty of proper learning. This only occurs when the hearers have permitted themselves to search their own consciences in favour of a 'feel good' factor. A classic inclination of young people. Thought. Sophomore is derived from 2 words in Greek sophos and mores (check the spelling) meaning 'wise' and 'fool' Of course a conscientious faculty will not take advantage of this in pursuit of their own agenda.
Students will then become aware of truthful information such as Reformation history and not find satisfaction in viewing it through political spectacles, be they nationalist or Marxist.
Luther had the benefits of the printing press
@@jerrymichaelgreen2675 he certainly did as did Tyndale but Roman Catholic power was immense. The Pope declared that any translation was an act of heresy punishable by burning. Something supported by Thomas Aquinas and even as 385 by Augustine of Hippo (torture rather than burning). Wycliffe handwrote many copies before he died in 1688.

A contrast of interest.
It's understood Luther couldn't afford the indulgance tax.
As a result we have liberty.
My ancestors were crucified for their religious beliefs. They were Protestants from Bavaria, Germany. My family sailed to the east coast in the early 1600's of America and settled in Virginia
Crucified? in medieval Europe? are you sure, that form of death penalty ceased to exist in Christendom after Emperor Constantine banned it to honour Jesus.

My family history is as yours they were known as Melungeons...mixed races before slavery.
My ancestors were French Calvinists, and they fled to America. They settled in Virginia too.
God Bless your ancestors !
You may have mentioned Jan Hus of Bohemia and the Hussites who came a 100 years earlier and already protested the selling of indulgences, translating the Bible into Czech and the Bible as the authority. They formed armies and successfully fought the Catholic Crusaders called upon the land. Luther actually took many of his ideas from Jan Hus. It was a very important prerequisite to the Reformation already weakening the church by the time Luther nailed his thesis. Check it out.
Thanks for this information. That's very interesting and I had never heard about that.
People do ignore Hus for some reason. Remember that history is a story. Our brains like to hear a story. Historians know this. Hus forms an epilogue. This is awkward to a nice story.
The church was never got weakened by Jan Hus and Luther did not know anything about him when the Reformation began
@@kiennguyenanh8498 actually he did know about him and quoted him many times. For Central Europe he was well known. Do some deeper research you will be amazed.
Yeah, they also ommited John Wyclif
Great video as always! I'd be really interested in countries history
Very interesting 🧐 & I enjoy hearing a different view of the information. Thank You 😊
It’s always a pity that people forget the Hussite reformation. I feel like they’re entirely forgotten by content creators
Agreed,
Had Karl V let burn Martin Luder nobody would remember even his name ,as with Jan Hus and many other heretics !

Because it was a localized event and, the moderate branches won the internal conflicts and re-entered the Catholic Church.
"Polish-Lithuanian Empire"
So here is a like" from some Polish man.
Keep going
Come back to save europe PLC!
An empire is by definition an entitity, that governs wast ammounts of lands inhabitet by various people, so the PLC is by definition an empire. It was big ( 1 milion km2 at its peak) and governed over many nations: Ruthenians, Germans in Prussia, Baltic people in Courland and Livonia, Moldavians for a short time, and heck - one Polish King was even the Tzar of Russia.
@@borisbrosowski6630 The definition says "States or territories", not specifically kingdoms. And Poland ruled over many of them, as I already mentioned - Lithuania, Livonia, parts of Estonia, Courland, the Red Rus', parts of the Kievan Rus', small chunks of Slovakia (Spisz) and Moldova in the middle ages and for a short period in the early 1600's. And this isn't even counting the personal union with Sweden in 1592 or the Russia-Troubles-Polish-Tzar thing.
Going by your definition - what kingdoms comprised the ottoman empire? Kingdoms in the middle ages were established only with the supervision of the pope, and I don't remember the pope blessing any ottoman sultan. So the PLC, just like the Ottomans, and the HRE was an Empire.
And as for Ukraine - it became independent only in 1945, and for a brief period in the 1920's before being swallowed up by the bolsheviks, So it wasn't an empire. The Russians yeah, but Ukraine not.
@@borisbrosowski6630 Yeah, but Poland can be concidered an empire on the same terms as the Ottomans or Russia: "an aggregate of many separate states or territories under a supreme ruler".
Non of them was appointed by the pope as emperors, but by definition they just were empires.
@@Maximmuss_The pope was only responsible for the old west-roman empire (this includes poland) - the catholic half. Please show me a map or any document from 1400-1800 where it is written "Imperium Polonicum". The Ottomans as Kalifs (=Emperors) ruled over Sultans (=Kings) - of course, being ilsamic they could not have been appointed by the orhtodox Patriarch. The Russians declared themeselves "Tsar" (as did the Bulgarians) but became an Empire only after acquireing the Kingdom of Poland. (Funny story: the Grand-Duchy of Warzaw actually had to be promoted to a kingdom so that the Tsar could be an emperor...)
The Spanish Inquisition is not older than the Inquisition in Rome. The Papal Inquisition was founded in the 13th century, while the Spanish Inquisition (the Castilian Inquisition ti be precise) was founded at the end of the 15th century. Also it's impossible to explain the Reformation without mentioning the precedents: Cathars, Hussites and Erasmus of Rotterdam.
These kind of mistakes are somehow common in this channel.
and it is also worth mentioning the previous schisms of the church.
Those "mistakes' are 'intended", by design!!
Fruits of the spirit. Hospitality
When they are constantly feed anticatholic propaganda it's no wonder they are ignorant
Both inquisitions were inspired by Satan.
Thank you for including the Restorationists. We are often overlooked when it comes to big picture issues like this.
What about Husittes? Why does everyone forget Husittes? They had several crussades sent against them. Even Joan of Arc wanted to lead one against them. Or John Wycliffe, who inspired them all?
I think its because the Hussites and the Lollards did not succeed like Luther did. The Lollards were suppressed easily after the Oldcastle Rebellion and although the Hussites were more successful being able to contend with Catholics and do things like the First Defenestration of Prague, the burning of Jan Hus at the Council of Constance doesn’t make it as successful as Luther’s reformation. Finally, I think Luther and his later fellows Calvin, Zwingli et al. had far more radical ideas which could lead to schism like sola fides, sola scriptura and the like.
@@laurenceraran4027 Husitte Wars resulted in Catholics tolerating protestants. After Battle of Lipany, Utraquists made peace with Catholics and after that, protestants could live normally in Bohemia. We even had protestant king shortly after the wars and almost a century before Luther was even born.
@@Volnas97 That’s true, I won’t deny the importance or the relative success of the Hussite Wars - they are by far the most important proto-Protestant group and had a great effect by showing that the religious hegemony of the Catholic Church is not impregnable. But what Luther did was form something not particularly contained within Bohemia or Germany as I would argue the Jan Hus’ ideas were due to his death at Constance. Where Hus faced death at the hands of Sigismund and the Council of Constance, Luther was invited to Trent where they had to form a council specifically to counter the Reformation (although he would die before then, so he may have suffered the same fate as Hus). Hus was able to preach to the people and intellectuals in Prague, Luther faced the Holy Roman Emperor and King of Spain, Charles V, down and preached his ideas in a debate at the Diet of Worms before the nobles of Germany. I am judging success in Luther and Hus to be how widespread their impact was and it is clear that while the Church was shook by Hus, it would not face schism and full separation. Luther’s ability to survive and continue writing against the Church increased his ability to divide the Church, expose corruption and form a new theology - which I think makes him more reformist and more successful than Jan Hus and the Hussites.
That's true. Joan was against the Hussites.
@@Volnas97 Protestantism started with Luther so how do you have “Protestant” king a century before him?
There was also the Hussite movement in and around what is today Czechia.
THE HOUSITES ZISKA THE GREAT IM FROM GREECE BUT I KNOW HISTORY EVERYBODY SPEAK ABOYT GREAT ALEXANDER AND HE WAS GREAT BUT AS A GENERAL ZISKA WAS EQUAL AND MAYBE BETTER IN MILITARY ONLY SUBJECTS
@zalacainbilbao, I think that the Czech Hussites must be also be included in a discussion of the Protestant Reformation.
I think that was actually about 100 years beforehand i.e. in the early 1400s
Husits were actually the first. Jan Hus requested that laity should receive Holy Blood of Christ, not just priests. And he was sentenced to death. For me he was reformist, not Protestant.

Nice video! Loved the map representation. I wonder how you made the map.
Martin Luther believed that Mary should be held in highest reverence, advocating the use of the first half of the Hail Mary (that is, "Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.") as a sign of reverence for and devotion to the Virgin
King Henry VIII of England was awarded the title "Defender of the Faith" by the Pope after he published a statement against Luther. The joke is that the Pope forgot to specify WHICH faith he was supposed to defend. The monarchs of England retain this title to this day.
Edward, everyone knew what "the Faith" meant. It means the Catholic Faith and always will. The Protestant hijaking of the term makes no difference. The Church of England is the counterfit organisation that stole Catholic churches and monasteries and murdered and persecuted the Catholic people. The C of E will never replace the Catholic Faith that has never dissapeared from England.
Spain was the wealthiest European kingdom. Henry’s wife was a Spanish princess. The Pope wasn’t going to grant Henry’s marriage dissolution. For fear of offending the King of Spain
In Western Europe
From around the 6th Century unto the 16th Century, there was primarily only “one Church” and this Church was headed up in Rome, it was know as the Roman Catholic Church, Catholic meaning a/ universal & worldwide b/ Including everything positive & Christian c/ Past, the present and eternity. This Church was/is headed up by the Popes & Cardinals, in a Pyramid system of Governorship. They taught that there should be and must be only one church in & throughout the world and that this Church should be headed up in Rome, by the Pope. Therefore, during these Centuries the Church was managed and controlled by Rome
Rome owned the church property & land, and controlled the clergy in all of England
In England
In the 16th Century, no small dispute arose, between the King of England, Henry the VIII, and the Popes of Rome. This dispute was mainly focussed on Henry’s Marriages. He wanted the Pope of Rome, to annul his marriage(s) but the Pope was not altogether willing.
As a result mainly of this dispute, Henry Kicked out Roman Catholic rule and control of the church in England, He took control of the churches, land and Clergy. Henry made himself the Head of the Church of England. So, the churches in England, became known as “The church of England” ! it was no longer the church of Rome, but it became the church of England under King Henry VIII.
This became what was later called the Reformation, so under Henry the church was reformed. It was reformed to become a national church, in contrast to a Catholic & Global church headed up in Rome. The boundary of the newly reformed church became the boundary of the Nation state, hence church “of England”. From then onwards, the church of England was owned and controlled by the King and His Ministers. This was the Nationalisation of the Church
During this time, in England, the Bible was translated into English, it was printed and fully released in the English language, making it accessible to all English speaking readers
During the following Century after Henry’s so-called Reformation
As time proceeded, many Bible believing Christians and Christian church leaders in England. Began to increasingly see from reading the New Testament, that the Church should be Independent & Self Governing. They came to steadfastly realise that the church in/of England should not be something owned and controlled by the Monarch and the Monarch’s Government, rather the church should be Independent and self-Governing, and that the bible taught that there should be local assemblies/churches, that are Independent & Self-Governing.
This type of Christian & Christian church leader, was sometimes called; a/ Separatist b/ Non-Conformist c/ Dissenters. One of the most distinct early non-conformists was a man called Robert Browne bn 1550s died 1633, he was the Master at the Great Hospital in Norwich and is famous for stating in His book entitled “without tarrying for any” that the church should appoint its own leaders.
These non-conformist Christians tried many times to meet together, have their own-independent assembly church life, independent from Government control. They were often severely persecuted, and like Robert Browne, John Robinson and hundreds of others, they often fled England to live in todays Holland (later the American Colonies) where they could freely have their own church-life. After a long and varied struggle, Later with the Act of Toleration in 1688, a deal was struck and the English Monarchy William & Mary permitted, the building of “houses for worship” for non-conformists use
He received the title before his falling out. He was very devout.
@@Idahoguy10157 Offending the Spanish king wasn't the problem, the problem was that he need the Spaniards to defend him from the French and the Turks, also Charles the V compromise himself to stop Martin Luther as he was the HRE's emperor.
You forgot to mention Jan Hus.
The primary reason why the Catholic church eventually opposed Luther was his statement _"Ja, ich bin Hussite"_ ("Yes, I'm a Hussite") when put on trial.
Many figures originally wanted to get Luther on board for a reformation _within_ Catholicism, which eventually happened anyway.

@@cyrusol He is desperate.
Good point, Cyrusol. The church's kidnapping and murder of William Tyndale was only one of countless crimes against Christ and humanity. But perhaps the most dispiccable was the early church's insistance on a "fixed" meaning for scripture, including betraying their flock with the *_only unforgivable sin._*
Ref: *_Trinity Treason_*
@@RodMartinJr You're not the original Christian Church, and you have no authority to say what should be doctrine and what shouldn't. The Church and its Bishops, who are ordained by the Church, who trace their priestly line to Christ and the Apostles, have the authority to declare doctrine (an objective fact). Thus, you're just an idiot heretic who's just coping and seething extremely hard.
Fun fact: John Wycliffe is often cited as the earliest predecessor to the Protestant Reformation and died in 1384. But what few students of the Reformation know is that Wycliffe was heavily influenced by the Christian mystic Richard Rolle. He was one of the most widely popular English authors along side Shakespeare until the 19th century. When reading Rolle’s works similarities to the Protestant focus on the love of God are prevalent.
This is why we should know the word ourselves, then we won't be DECEIVED, by MEN.
I've read Richard Rolle. Wycliffe invented his own list of repudiation of Christian doctrine. His ideas are false and not those of historic Christianity in scripture, apostolic tradition, the writings of the apostolic and early Church fathers right up to his own time. He was a babbler or Lollard.
Yes the Catholic Church killed him off, Because he was telling the church, and reading the word, which the Catholic Church forbid, Because THEY THINK PEOPLE ARE DUMB, ABBA YAH tells us to read it, which will people believe. I AM BELIEVING ABBA YAH
Shakespeare was a recusant catholic.
If that was true, Rolle would have been mentioned several times in Luther's writings. Where do you base this accusation of? A mystic starting the reformation philosophy, I don't think so.
I'm not particularly religious, but I found this quite interesting.
Even if you’re not religious, the reformation is a really significant part of American/ western civilization because the reformation was a kinda a result of the renaissance where people were trained to really READ the Bible in their own and have personal and intellectual relationships with God, rather than just listen to the church. A lot of our culture and following revolutions/philosophy is based on this idea. 😊
I learned that, which at times in grade school I might not have believed - the printing press is a huge step or advent, in hueman evolution.
It’s why Catholics and Protestants are different despite being both Christianity
The presentation missed completely that "reformation" against church excesses started long before Luther. It was Wykliffe in England and Jan Hus in Bohemia (burn at stakes n 1415) who preached against church practices. Hus' death was followed by wars between Hussite movement and Catholic powers and later continued with Czech Brothers (Jednota bratrska), who also printed a bible in Czech (bible Kralicka).
You could say that it started even earlier with Augustine of Hippo.

Great ! I'm precisely reading a book about the thirty years war (and I just have to say that the estimates of this war, nowadays, are less heavy than what you said : only some region like the Rhenish Palatinate saw their population nearly disappear).
And before that I read some stuff about the religious wars in France. I was surprised how fast and wide the reformation spread. And how fast it provoked war, in the Spanish Netherlands and in France.
Hugin....
...and not forget how rapidly protestantism vanished in the whole of France after the clean massacre of the St Bartholomy feast.
Though it may not affect all of Europe, but for Sweden the 30 years war was huge, as it solidified a more than 100 year dominance of. Or there Europe

Nah, that bugged me too. Sure it's a noble gas, but Catherine of Argon and Catherine of Aragon are two entirely different things... Everyone knows Catherine of Argon had more to do with the Galvanist and Lithium movements.
It’s funny how Luther’s big hook was that the Bible alone should be the final authority instead of the Catholic Church, and now all these years later the denomination named after Luther has gay marriage in their churches! Just goes to show that when every moron has their own interpretation of the Bible, you obviously need an authoritative structure to state the true interpretation. That’s why God instituted the Church!
How about all of the other churches that have rejected gay union? Why has the pope claimed support? Why is the Catholic church helping build a one world religion temple? These are things that Catholics seem to be ignoring.
eli - I think you're right. Without an authoritative structure, how would our existing religious fantasies be perpetuated?
What would a side by side comparison of each translation done within their respective locale look like? Did they each match verbatim?
If so, were the translations all done completely independent of one another?
Great job explaining the sequence of events. I found it very educational
You need to name Jan Hus when speaking of Reformation. Jan Hus basically already pointed out everything that Luther later would say. And this was nearly 100 years before Luther! Please do not make the same mistake like so many teachers and historians and ignore Hus and the other early Reformers.
You are correct about Jon Hus who was burned at the stake in 1415.
Then you should go back further to the bishop of Hippo himself, Augustine.
Augustine was the source of some of the bad theology and practices in the Roman Catholic Religion which needed to be Reformed. The practice of Baptizing Infants and the need to have Confirmation comes from around the time of Augustine.
Some of Augustine's ideas were good, but not all
@@pastorart1974 I think you should realize that Luther and Calvin and John Wesley ALL continued the practice of infant baptism AND confirmation. The churches they started still have infant baptism AND confirmation. If infant baptism is as wrong as some say why didn't the Holy Spirit inspire these reformers to abolish it ?? God wants us to be committed to Him. This commitment can come during adult baptism OR confirmation.
@@davidwv7370 You have identified the major problem in those three denominations to this day. Most of the people in most of the infant sprinkling denominations today have neither been converted or born again. These are the denominations which support the LGBTQ movement today. These are the Denominations which support abortion today.
Keep in mind that I was raised in what is today an ELCA Pro Abortion, Pro LGBTQ Lutheran Church. Very few of my Confirmation Classmates are serving Jesus today.
The Wesley Foundation campus Pastors were the Chaplains of the Gay Peoples Alliance at Illinois State University 50 years ago (my Alma Mater).
Note that the 1974 in my Screen Name is the year I became a Pastor not the year I was born I am a Vietnam Veteran.
After coming home from Vietnam I had a long talk with my Lutheran Pastor who admitted not one baby was ever baptized in the Bible. In that same conversation he told me he didn't believe in Billy Graham's religion That was the day I decided to leave the Lutheran Church. Within ten years I would see Apostasy and Liberalism creep into my new Denomination.

It's a great irony that although Martin Luther did all this purely out of religious zeal. He's a significant cog in the atheist movement
Acually, Luther is one of the few true Christians of his time, despite his flaws.
@J Kim I'm not a Luthern, but God bless Martin Luther, despite his faults, for:
1.Exposing The Vatican for what it really is as well as the vile popery.
2. Giving the German people a Bible they could read which eventually opened the Bible to everyone.
3. Exposed the selling of indulgences grift.
4. Gave us A Mighty Fortress Is Our God hymn.
5. And, most importantly, he taught the ultimate truth of the Word of God, the doctrine of justification by faith alone which is the central doctrine of the Christian life and that faith comes solely as a gift from God.
@J Kim Catholics kneel down and worship idols; pray to dead saints and Mary; are very superstitious, see apparations; believe in the silly brown scapular; believe their man-made traditions are equal to or superior to the Holy Spirit 's Word of God and tell their sins to gay and pedo priests.

In my opinion, the protestant reformation was one of the worst events in christian history, far worse than the schism of 1054. Science, Laws, Philosophy, Art, Education, and many more things that made the western civilization greater than others (multiculturalists can cry now) came from the Holy Church. We catholics, instead of genociding natives, integrated them in society. Catholic priests protected natives against enslavers in the americas. The calvinists and lutherans took the land and killed or expeled them. Protestantism didnt ever produce human arts like the catholics did, look their simplistic architecture for example. Also this movements today, flat earth and antivax, come from the protestant sects, since a protestant priest can say whatever he wants without consequences.
@@Nimai_Aquino You are Spot on My Brother in Christ. The Cathlolic Church BUILT WESTERN CIVILIZATION. It was CATHOLICS who stood up for the faith in times of danger, such as the Battle of Tours, The Crusades, Lepanto and Vienna,not protestants. They were busy preaching their heresies and dividing the faithful. But there are some doctrines that these "reformers" kept, such as the belief in Infant baptism, the Belief in Mary's perpetual virginity as well as her role as the Mother of God, something that Luther, Zwingli and Calvin themselves believed even after they revolted against the Church. So just so you know, even what their founders tought they don't believe it.
luther sent a copy of his thesis' to constantinople (instanbul) asking the orthodox patriarch to give his input because luther believed that the orthodox had not lost their way as did the roman catholics. this document is still in the orthodox library in constantinople (instanbul) and you can read the notations that the patriarch made. the document never made it back to luther due to luther's death.
I wonder what would have happened if there was more dialogue between the Protestants and the Orthodox.

I'd like to note that the prosecution of Galileo actually had less to do with his beliefs, and more to do with him indirectly, and intentionally, calling the pope an idiot, and breaking the terms of a (surprisingly fair) contract he signed with the church.
Also, the punishment was just house arrest. That's extremely mild compared some other stuff the Catholic Church has done for similar transgressions, throughout the years.
i wanna see you get house arrest for talking about nanotechnology and all its potential positive uses and then say its just an extremely mild punishment
@@exeexecutor You do realize that I was saying it was mild *compared to* other punishments, right?
Also, how in the world do those two scenarios compare? Galileo wasn't punished for disagreeing with geocentrism. He was punished for violating a *legally binding* contract and for being an asshole towards the *Pope.*
@@Menzobarrenza Not to mention that he wanted to revise the bible by adding some stuff to it(I forgot) but I remember is that he wanted to revise but the church disagreed and placed him in house arrest for multiple "crimes" he committed indirectly as what you said. Protestants usually portray Galilei as a martyr who defied the church when it was the church who supported all of his works prior to his scandals.
@@kuyachamp7618 Honestly, I've mostly heard this from Atheists trying to prove that Christianity is anti-science, and not so much from Protestants.

I think that the fact that the catholic church did end up listening to the reformists complaints, and reforming the catholic church afterwards whilst still affirming and better clarifying its, at the time 1400-year-old doctrine of faith, is a fact that is too often overlooked.
agree, cool video but really overlooked the cultural and ecclesiastical achievements of the counter reformation.
And it only took the Church 400 years to reverse its excommunication of Galileo.
They use the word clarifying as if they're not just making up a ton of new stuff all the time.

Beautifully made video, what did you use?
It is important to mention the attraction of the wealth of the Catolic Church which was greater than theological aspects. Princes in Germany and kings as the King of Swede took advantage to confiscate all land and other assets of the Catolic Church. Gustavus Adolphus, the King of Swede was almost bankrupt when he switched to Protestantism. So taking all the land and other assets of the Catolic church was a big deal and he had money to intervine in the religious war in Germany. The funny aspect was that of forcing all population within a country or kingdom to convert automatically to the faith of the king/prince or leave the land. In England the situation was more dramatic and funny due to the fact that the Church of England was invented in order Henry the 8th got a divorce. In all cases was an enormous destruction of monasteries, confiscation of valuable goods, old books burned, many people just killed end so on. Pretty much like Viking invasions. Not to mention that the tax paid by ordinary people to the church was not eliminated but redirected to the British Treasury. So, this aspect is less discussed but I think was a major push for Prices/Kings to embrace so suddenly the Protestant faith and to fight so hart for it.
The Catholic Church ran the poverty programs.
Gustavus Adolphus was born a protestant. I think you mean Gustav Vasa. Besides, a spiritual institution should not horde wealth; they should worship God, not Mammon.

Sorry if this had been pointed out before, but the issue of John Tetzel selling indulgences happened in Wittenberg. The frustration Luther felt was because it was conflicting with his churches “territory”. It seemed from the video that the issue happened in Rome.

Supposedly Luther tried to talk with the Greeks, as the New Testament was originally written in there language but with the fall of the Byzantine (Roman) empire Luther could no longer communicate with them. I believe without the fall of the Roman Empire the reformer would have been much smaller
@Kokoro Shimamura they mean the eastern romans
My understanding is the Ottomans where extremely supportive of the Protestants. They where 100% in favour of a schism among the Christians - just loved the idea.
there was communication... the church didnt die... and the reality is that they both hated the catholic church, and they both agreed on many things against the catholic doctrine... but thats all there was to it... also due to the structure of the greek orthodox church(the emperor appointed the patriarch of constantinople and since the empire was dead, the patriarch was now an ottoman puppet, which is why even greece today has its own church away from the patriarch and the patriarch is nothing but a tittle any more, he has virtually no community, apart from some 10 thousand greeks that the turks didnt manage to butcher the last century!)
All one has to do is read the New Testament to understand the problems with Catholicism. There are genuine Christians within the RCC but the institution is rife with man made doctrines and traditions that are a mixture of pagan and Christianity. If you read the OT, God really hates this and calls it spiritual fornication and rebukes the Jews over it throughout the OT. Yes Catholics, I hear you, this does not make protestant perfect, far from it. But the basis of Christianity and sound doctrine is the Bible according to Jesus and the Apostles and the early church.
@@Orange6921 other way around.. Christ said he would establish his church on earth
1:38 you explained the indulgences correctly, but that text in the bubble is wrong. The didn't remove sins, only reduced the time in purgatory.
The Church never intended this to happen it was because of widespread misinformation and other priests, bishops and even cardinals using indulgences to get bags full o' coins. This was later corrected by the Church but the damage has already been done, If it wasn't for that Dominican or any other priests who misinterpreted the indulgences as a way for salvation then none of this shit would've happen.

THE HISTORY AND TRUTH ABOUT CATHOLIC CHURCH
1. The Catholic Church canonized the Bible. Catholic Bishops in late 3rd century AD determined the 46 Old Testament books and 27 New Testament books. Catholic monks copy the Bible by hand to preserve that took them 10 years to complete one and protect it. Even Christ himself never wrote a single letter but message of salvation he left on his Apostles that all tombs are under the premises of Catholic Church. How Bible became supreme source of authority within Church when there is no Bible in first 400 years of Christianity.
2. The Catholic Church gave us the Gregorian Calendar which we all use today.
3. The Catholic Church gave us the date for Easter.
4. The Catholic Church gave us the date for Christmas which means Christ - Mass. ( Christians Mass )

I loved "Fatal Discord." Why waste time on "Game of Thrones"?
The Protestant Reformation started because of the occurrence of the printing press, and some structural problem in the Catholic Church that already in the end of the 14th century and the start of the 15th century caused the Wycliff reformation movement as well as the Husite wars ... as well as the Waldensian schism already in the 13th century. Luther was a catalyst, and he impressed other reformation adherents that much that they dared to raise their flag at the same time.
For everyone else in Europe it was about the Catholic church. For the English it was about Henry Tudor trying to get his end away with Anne Boleyn.

The lack of humility is the problem of both sides, no?
- lack of humility among some catholic leaders to reform what had to be corrected within the church at that time.
- lack of humility among some protestants leaders to refuse division and choose patience.

Well said. Lack of humility has long been a corrupting influence in the church, starting with the early church bureaucracies of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th centuries.

Luther said it wasn't his posting of the theses per se that caused the reformation, rather it was caused by some unknown person with access to the university's printing press. That person printed hundreds or even thousands of copies and distributed them widely in the surrounding communities. The German people were fed up with Rome and were spiritually ready for a new theological message. The reformation spread like wildfire through Germany after that.
Great video! Loved the understatement: "Today, though, the relationship between the Western churches is remarkably better than it once was."

The Scottish Protestant Reformation was certainly one of the causes of the Jacobite uprisings. The Stuarts believed they were divinely chosen to be rightful monarchs of Great Britain, and the Hanoverian monarchy to be usurpers. However, the relationship between monarch and people in Scotland was always one of contract, with sovereignty resting with the people, and most Scots did not accept divine monarchy. That's why there were Scots, both Catholic and Protestant, who fought on both the Jacobite and Government sides.
What is more accurate was that the parallel reformations in England and Scotland led to the Covenanting wars.
While King Henry VIII established the English monarch to be head of the Church of England, which retained priests and bishops, the Calvinist Scottish Protestant Reformation, which grew with astonishing support, established the Church of Scotland whereby there were no intercessors between God and mankind; ministers were merely preachers and teachers.
James VI, King of Scots from the abdication of his Catholic mother, Mary, in 1567, was brought up in this strict Presbyterian belief. In 1603, Queen Elizabeth I of England died, and James was the only person who could succeed her on the English throne. He decreed that his two kingdoms were one, which he called "Great Britain". In 1621 he ordered the Bible be translated into English (yes, that King James).
While King James I of Great Britain, as he was now fashioned, was happy to leave his native Scotland alone, his Stuart successors were a different matter. King Charles I ordered that the Anglican Church become the state religion of Scotland, installed bishops, and outlawed all other forms of worship. Needless to say, the Scots Presbyterians were having none of it. In 1638 a band of Presbyterians in Greyfriar's Kirk, Edinburgh, signed the "Solemn League and Covenant", demanding freedom to worship in their own beliefs. Copies of the "Covenant" were signed all over Scotland. Presbyterians would hold services in secret, often with armed guards. Charles I sent forces to put down this dissent, and it was not long before the two sides met in open warfare.
Charles I was of course deposed and executed for trying to impose his will upon the English parliament. But after the Commonwealth under Oliver Cromwell, the monarchy was restored in 1660 under King Charles II. He too tried to impose Anglicanism upon Scotland, and civil war broke out again. When his son, King James II, ascended the throne, he tried again. The Covenanting wars against James II were the bloodiest of all, becoming known as "the Killing Time". One slogan of the Covenanters of the time was "No king but Christ".
With James II leaning towards Roman Catholicism, the Scots were only too happy in joining the English and Irish to invite William of Orange to depose James II. But even then, before they would accept William as king, the Scots demanded he sign the Claim of Right in 1689, stating that neither he nor any future monarch would interfere in Scots ecclesiastical matters.
Scottish Presbyterian belief remains one of the strictest forms of Protestantism in the world to this day.
Lots of good stuff here. I watched Bruce Fumey's youtube vid on topic. But- is there evidence that Scots were among those who "invited" Wm to sail with an Armada and take over? My understanding was it was English MPs
Protestantism is the counterfit movement that stole Catholic churches and monasteries and murdered and persecuted the Catholic people. It will never replace the Catholic Faith that has never dissapeared from Britain
And now scotts are getting replaced by muslims and hindus in their own homeland
Insuppose it was worth it weakining europe and crippling christianism in europe forever.
Its not like all protestant countries nowadays are majorithy atheist right ?
don't think the Irish really had much say in the glorious revolution.

On the Topic, I recommend Poland by Zamoyski. It's really interesting what religious ideas were in this unique state
"Polish-Lithuanian empire"
Alright, calm down Poland.
We never used that word, and to be honest it's the first time I see that political entity being called an 'empire'. It was a commonwealth.

Thanks to William Tyndale for his English Translation of the Bible!!!
A man who gave his life for the word of God!
So it was William Tyndale that changed the verse of, 'and Son of God.' Mark 1:1 verse line.
And a thanks to the printning press that made it possible for every man to read the Bible in their own language. NOT being told by a Catholic priest what God's Word is about and being interpreted in the way the Pope and the Catholic clergymen, wished to control and terrorize ordinary people. I don't think God approved. 😊😮❤😎👍👌
Printing press not printning ...sorry😊❤😂😂😎👍👌
I could go on...but I've already published my works on these subject matters and have made my position clear
It will be interesting to see how this all plays out.
I would highly recommend the novel 'Q' by Luther Blissett
Played upfront For Watford and AC Milan.
What is important about Protestantism is not the belief itself, but the implicit recognition that it is important to question entrenched dogma. This has led to the modern world.
This.
Wrong. All the different varieties have their own dogmas and none of them want anybody to question it.
@@Emacee1701 Wrong, anyone is free to question, however if you can’t back your claims they will not be taken seriously.
Have you seen the modern world? It isn't a good thing.
@@matthaeusprime6343 The tech and medical science is, maybe not the hyper secularism, and shameless hedonism that a common now.
I don't recognize Luther as a Reformationist. I recognize the martyr Jan Hus who preceded Luther during the martyr Joan of Arc's lifetime.
Very interesting. Thank you
08:10 in direct contradiction to the reformists ...well, it was the reformed view that was in direct contradiction to a dozen centuries of christian-catholic tradition.
Is it in the bible?
You missed William Tyndale who was the first person to attempt to translate the bible in to the local language in his case English. Henry vii actually tried to have him killed at first and was called the defender of the faith by the Pope. William Tyndale had to flee to Holland and Luther and Calvin etc drew heavily from his work. Henry never really wanted to end Catholicism and even after he took control he didn't really want any other changes just the wealth of the church. It was his son Edward who actually took us in to Protestantism before Mary started the slaughter and Elizabeth ended the whole thing making England basically Protestant from her Reign on.
Charles I and II were Catholic.

Minor mistake: the Council of Trent did not say the bread and wine transform into the Body and Blood of Christ (7:57) it said It is transubstantiated into the Body and Blood of Christ, for the Form, as in trans - form - of the bread is not changed.
You talked about three schisms and that Martin Luther was the second part.
At first I thought that the first was from King Gorge the 8th. But he was the third.
What was the first schism for fracture?
03:00 luther insists only the bible itself should be viewed as the only reliable source of information.. then proceeds to edit the bible and make a protestant version to suit his newly created religious dogmas.
A classic
All one has to do is read the New Testament to understand the problems with Catholicism. There are genuine Christians within the RCC but the institution is rife with man made doctrines and traditions that are a mixture of pagan and Christianity. If you read the OT, God really hates this and calls it spiritual fornication and rebukes the Jews over it throughout the OT. Yes Catholics, I hear you, this does not make protestant perfect, far from it. But the basis of Christianity and sound doctrine is the Bible according to Jesus and the Apostles and the early church.
We now have countless copies of the entire NT that are nearly 2000 years old in the original Greek. We KNOW for a fact the words have not been changed.

He even wanted to take out james, cause there's the famous verse in james that says and i'm paraphrasing badly here but that, having faith alone isn't enough but that you must also have good works in conjunction with the faith that your'e supposed to have.
Edit: yea i'm a bad paraphraser, here's the original section from james mentioning it which shows, even the bible was against Luther and his teaching, so luther was in heresy, aka a heretic. *14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good[a] is that? 17 So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.*

The world, specifically the protestants, have forgotten the enormity of the reformation.
I hope you notice that Protestantism was the most instantly popular and had the most success in northern lands where growing grapes was challenging if not impossible so these places wound up having to blow major parts of the budget having their on importing their sacramental wine (and even in England many congregations ONLY had it it for Easter). Spain, Italy and even most of France had abundant bounties of grapes and the resulting wine flowed all year round!
A coincidence perhaps? Or maybe everything should just be boiled down to logistics. I guess social darwinism really is the best way to look at things
Lutherans and Anglicans both used wine as much as us Catholics.
@@Gladdig Not always. It depended on the individual congregations and locale.
Borneo protestant from Sabah, Malaysia HERE!
@@gritosalerta952 There are exceptions of course. Let's not forget that the southern part of Ireland stayed predominantly Catholic despite the climate making it next to impossible to grow grapes and impoverished parishes having difficulty in budgeting for imported wine. Still, overall, where grapes could be grown easily, that's what stayed Catholic.
