The History of Protestantism
is a Christian classic on the history of of the church and reformation.
It is sad to say that in our present day many dont know even the
basics of the history of the Christian Church and what terrible
struggles generations of people had to go thru to secure liberty
of conscious.

| The
History of the Waldenses |
THE Waldenes stand apart
and alone in the Christian world. Their place on the sufrace of
Europe is unique; their position in history is not less unique;
and the end. appointed them to fulfill is one which has been assigned
to them alone, no other people being permitted to share it with
them. The Waldenses bear a twofold testimony. Like the snow-clad
peaks amid which their dwelling is placed, which look down upon
the plains of Italy on the one side, and the provinces of France
on the other, this people stand equally related to primitive ages
and modern times, and give by no means equivocal testimony respecting
both Rome and the Reformation. If they are old, then Rome is new;
if they are pure, then Rome is corrupt; and if they have retained
the faith of the apostles, it follows incontestably that Rome has
departed from it. That the Waldensian faith and worship existed
many centuries before Protestantism arose is undeniable; the proofs
and monuments of this fact lie scattered over all the histories
and all the lands of mediaeval Europe; but the antiquity of the
Waldenses is the antiquity of Protestantism. The Church of the Reformation
was in the loins of the Waldensian Church ages before the birth
of Luther; her first cradle was placed amid those terrors and sublimities,
those ice-clad peaks and great bulwarks of rock. In their dispersions
over so many lands–over France, the Low Countries, Germany, Poland,
Bohemia, Moravia, England, Calabria, Naples– the Waldenses sowed
the seeds of that great spiritual revival which, beginning in the
days of Wicliffe, and advancing in the times of Luther and Calvin,
awaits its full consummation in the ages to come.

| THE
LIFE OF JOHN KNOX |
The Reformation
from popery marks an epoch unquestionably the most important in
the history of modern Europe. The effects of the change which it
produced, in religion, in manners, in politics, and in literature,
continue to be felt at the present day. Nothing, surely, can be
more interesting than an investigation of the history of that period,
and of those men who were the instruments, under Providence, of
accomplishing a revolution which has proved so beneficial to mankind.

| Romanism
and the Reformation |
The Reformation of the
sixteenth century, which gave birth to Protestantism, was based
on Scripture. It gave back to the world the Bible. It taught the
Scriptures; it exposed the errors and corruptions of Rome by the
use of the sword of the Spirit. It applied THE PROPHECIES, and accepted
their practical guidance. Such Reformation work requires to be done
afresh. We have suffered prophetic anti-papal truth to be too much
forgotten. This generation is dangerously latitudinarian indifferent
to truth and error on points on which Scripture is tremendously
decided and absolutely clear.
