Sententia Zuinglii De Eucharistia Dictus est a multis, quod humile erat Zuinglii Reformatoris Helvetiæ iudicium de Eucharistia. Inter Protestantum video normaliter quasi scalam cum Luthero in summo, Calvino in medio, et Zwinglio ita humili, ut digiti eius rutilant.
Quæstio est, utrum vel quomodo Christus in Cœna adsit. Audivi, quod Zuinglius credit, panis ac vinum solummodo symboli carni ac sanguinis Christi sint, in distinctione sententia Calvini, qui credit Christus certe spiritualiter et sacramentaliter adest, sed non carnaliter vel corporaliter (quia corpus Christi in Cælo est, et erit usque ad parousiam, Ioh 17.
Dē In Baptismō Regenerātiōne In quīs viīs possunt baptistæ de regenerātiōne in baptismō dīcere? Māiōritās baptistārum dīcant in nullīs, egō autem nonnullīs.
Prima ratiō baptistæ generāliter regenerātiōnis in baptismō nōn dīcunt est quod magis iīs placet verbæ Deī dīcere in coniūnctiō cūm regenerātiōne. Id est, ergō fidēs ex audītū audītūs autem per verbum Chrīstī (Rom. X xvii). Sī ut crēdās est audiendum, est verbum Deī rēs, quī factulātem crēdere affert, quem regenerātiō nōminant.
Psalms 9 and 10: Are They Really Acrostic? One cause of the numbering differences between the Septuagint (LXX) and Hebrew Psalms is the union in the LXX of Psalms 9 and 10. This is argued to be the original form of the Psalm(s) on the basis of their generally similar content as well as the lack of ascription to David in Psalm 10 which is present in the surrounding Psalms.
Baptists and the Christian Tradition (Emerson) Review There was much discussion in the 20th century on the question of Baptist origins and the interplay of Baptist theology and practice with historic Christianity. In the last generation, this discussion has to some extent merged with a more general Protestant ressourcement and self-appropriation of “catholic” Protestant identity.
This is no doubt partly due to the squeezing together of the various denominational traditions due to the pressures of modernity and totalizing secularism, however it is clear that there are good reasons from within the Protestant, including Baptist, tradition itself to rediscover the (Western) catholic elements which shaped the traditions in the 16th and 17th centuries, and use these insights to inform worship and theological inquiry today.
