This book was released on 2023-05-25 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the dawn of the Protestant Reformation, French Protestants began their struggle for religious equality and civil rights. They faced opposition from the monarchy and the Roman Catholic Church. For centuries the Catholic Church had influenced every aspect of life--cultural, educational, social, political, and economic. Protestantism arrived as a foreign invader and disrupted the Catholic monopoly. Protestants did not receive individual civil and religious rights until the French Revolution in 1789. The Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen announced a new era of religious tolerance. Official recognition of the Protestant religion was not granted until Napoleon came to power and imposed the Concordat of 1801 and the Organic Articles in 1802. The rights obtained by Protestants did not always translate into protection from violence and discrimination. During the nineteenth century, political upheaval and attempts to reestablish Catholicism as the state religion led to the termination of the Concordat in 1905. The history of French Protestantism serves as a reminder of the danger of either religion or government assuming powers and roles which have not been attributed to them by the law of the land, the laws of God, or the will of citizens.

See the condensed version at 5,940 words, titled "How Huguenot Protestant Reformers Changed the World". Most non-Catholic Christians are not aware of the Protestant Reformation Movement of the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries, without which, we would have no choice even today but to be Catholics. Does this sound strange to you if you're Protestant? That's because many Protestant pastors are not teaching their flocks about this Christian, world-changing event . I honor the right of people in Catholicism to practice their religion because as a USA citizen it is my constitutional duty but Protestants can still strongly disagree with many of their interpretations on doctrines of the Holy Bible. These include paying money to the Catholic church to get loved ones out of "purgatory" - a place in-between Heaven and Hell, praying to Saints and to Mary who we love dearly rather than to the Father through Jesus Christ, belief that with the partaking of communion (Eucharist}, the bread and wine become the literal body and blood of Jesus Christ , etc.... Still, it is our duty to honor their rights of beliefs because we also have those rights as Protestants. We all of course do not have to honor hostile, violent religious movements because this is an abuse of religious rights. Protestantism and Catholicism are not still at war but during the 16th, 17th and part of the 18th centuries there were over 10-million deaths that resulted as a result of the Protestant Reformation Movement. A people called "Huguenots," who were French, protested the coerced enforcement of Catholicism, as did followers of Martin Luther, referred to as Lutherans. My family tree books show that my own ancestors were Huguenot-French Protestants, as does my DNA testing. The National Huguenot Society also lists my ancestor, a man named Johannes Lorentz, who with his wife Anna Margaretha Heiliger, immigrated to Holland and from there, to the USA. Learn more about the Protestant Reformation Movement in this 13,900 word book. Included within the pages is discussion of Protestant Beliefs including Those in Contrast to Catholicism

Ill american protestants united to perform their part As the war has been strengthening the bond of sympathy between America and the people of France and Belgium, the Protestants of these countries, realizing that the moral strength of America lies in its spirit of freedom fostered by Protestantism, have been endeavoring to come into closer fellowship with the Protestants of America. Immediately after the declaration of war by America the French Protestant Committee sent to the Publicity Department of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America a letter for publication in the Protestant papers of this country, expressing joy in the fellowship of the two nations, now allied in the same great cause, and suggesting an interchange of newspapers and periodicals to the end that each country might learn to understand the other more perfectly. A part of the letter follows: The French Protestant Committee, in cooperation with the Federal Council of the Protestant Churches in France, has already done much, by means of its monthly Bulletin and other literature, to make the position and the aim of France during the war better known to your people. But since the great soa American Republic has entered with all her might into the battle for the united cause of Democracy and International Right, we feel it our duty to pay a more worthy tribute to the kinship and common ideals existing between the Protestant churches of the American and French Republics.... It is with the spirit of thankfulness and Christian fellowship that we, French Protestants, testify to the invaluable support of the churches and the religious press of America in nursing our wounded, feeding our fellow-countrymen under the yoke of the oppressor and caring for destitute...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the National Huguenot Society's 2022 Scholarly Works Award The Huguenots and their struggle for freedom of conscience and freedom of worship are largely unknown outside of France. The entrance of the sixteenth-century Reformation in France, first through the teachings of Luther, then of Calvin, brought three centuries of religious wars before Protestants were considered fully French and obtained the freedom to worship God without repression and persecution from the established church and the tyrannical state. From the first martyrs early in the sixteenth century to the last martyrs at the end of the eighteenth century, Protestants suffered from the intolerance of church and state, the former refusing genuine reform and unwilling to relinquish privileges, the latter rejecting any threats to the absolute monarchy. The rights gained with one treaty or edict of pacification were snatched away with another royal decree declaring Protestants heretics and outlaws. Political and religious intrigues, conspiracies, assassinations, and broken promises contributed to the turmoil and tens of thousands were exiled or fled to places of refuge. Others spent decades as slaves on the king's galleys or imprisoned. They lost their possessions; they lost their lives. They did not lose their faith in a sovereign God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the last couple decades, urban church planting has been all the rage. This has been a blessing for the city. This has also been a curse for many who sensed a call, saw a need, and left for a life of adventure, only to leave the city after a short time. Many left behind no church and live with memories of failure and frustration. They were eager, well-supported, not a little naive, and unprepared for life and ministry in the city. Urban church planting is not for everyone. It is not more important than church planting elsewhere. But if you believe God has called you to urban ministry, read this book before you go. It is written by a city guy, freed from the romanticism often associated with planting churches in the city. If after reading this you still believe God is calling you to the city, then by all means go. If not, know that God can use you elsewhere.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans are often baffled by France's general indifference to religion and laws forbidding religious symbols in public schools, full-face veils in public places, and even the interdiction of burkinis on French beaches. An understanding of laicite provides insight in beginning to understand France and its people. Laicite has been described as the complete secularization of institutions as a necessity to prevent a return to the Ancien Regime characterized by the union of church and state. To understand the concept of laicite, one must begin in the sixteenth century with the Protestant Reformation and freedom of conscience recognized by the Edict of Nantes in 1598. This has been called the period of incipient laicite in the toleration of Protestantism. The Revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685 reestablished the union of the throne and altar, which resulted in persecution of the Huguenots who fought for the principle of the freedom of conscience. French laicite presents a specificity in origin, definition, and evolution which led to the official separation of church and state in 1905. The question in the early twentieth century concerned the Roman Catholic Church's compatibility with democracy. That same question is being asked of Islam in the twenty-first century.
