The Gospel of the Reformation

“The Gospel of the Reformation at the Bern Religious Discussion 1528” is one of Franz Eugen Schlachter's later works on church history .

He wrote this pamphlet about the Swiss Reformation in 1909. Schlachter summarized these events in narrative form and enriched them with quotations, speeches, sermons, etc. In this way the reader learns something about Huldrych Zwingli , Martin Bucer , Berchtold Haller and Ambrosius Blarer .

After the introduction, Schlachter deals with the following topics:

• Why was the Bern disputation so important ?
• What kind of gospel was proclaimed in this religious conversation?
• The battle of light with darkness in the Reformation

Together with the works by Father Chiniquy that he has translated , it is the classical writings in which Franz Eugen Schlachter deals with Reformation themes.
