Johann Faber of Heilbronn - Religious Ideas

Religious Ideas

Faber was a man of vast theological learning. His Catholic zeal to stem the tide of Lutheranism bought him into open conflict with many church leaders. He was the author of a number of works, including the following:

  • "Quod fides esse possit sine caritate, expositio pia et catholica" (Augsburg, 1548)
  • "Testimonium Scripturae et Patrum B. Petrum apostolum Romae fuisse" (Antwerp, 1553)
  • "Grundliche und christliche Anzeigungen aus der heiligen Schrift und heiligen Kirchenlehrern was die evangelische Messe sei" (Dillingen, 1558)
  • "Enchiridion Bibliorum concionatori in popularibus declamationibus utile" (Cologne, 1568)
  • "Precationes Christianae ex sacris litteris et D. Augustino singulario studio concinnatae et selectae" (Cologne, 1586)

Famous quotes containing the words religious and/or ideas:

    In an age robbed of religious symbols, going to the shops replaces going to the church.... We have a free choice, but at a price. We can win experience, but never achieve innocence. Marx knew that the epic activities of the modern world involve not lance and sword but dry goods.
    Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)

    ...I knew I wanted to be permanently self-supporting and I vaguely thought I might work somewhere in the realm of ideas. I felt that I had within me an undeveloped fount of ideas. I did not know exactly what my ideas were, but whatever they were I wanted to convert people to them.
    Rheta Childe Dorr (1866–1948)
