the Scriptures, not for knowledge such as is in the ungodly, but for confidence which consoles and encourages

There has been great controversy concerning the Power
which some have awkwardly confounded
the power of the Church and the power of the sword. And
from this confusion very great wars and tumults have resulted, while the Pontiffs, emboldened by the power of
the Keys, not only have instituted new services and burdened consciences with reservation of cases, but have also
undertaken to transfer the kingdoms of this world, and
to take the Empire from the Emperor. These wrongs have
long since been rebuked in the Church by learned and
godly men. Therefore, our teachers, for the comforting

the glory of Christ's merit is dishonored when, by such

is manifest that, by such belief, traditions have almost
