Excerpt from The Conservative Reformation and Its Theology: As Represented in the Augsburg Confession, and in the History and Literature of the Evangelical Lutheran ChurchThe history of Christianity, in common with all genuine history, moves under the in¿uence of two generic ideas: the conservative, which desires to secure the present by fidelity to the results of the past, the progressive, which looks out, in hope, to a better future. Reforma tion is the great harmonizer of the two principles. Corresponding with Conservatism, Reformation, and Progress are three generic types of'chris tianity, and under these genera all the species are but shades, modifica tions, or combinations, as all hues arise from three primary colors.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
