Hey, I wonder what it is about Calvinists that they love being wrong!
The strained relation between these two men never came from external things, such as human rank and fame, much less from other advantages, but always from matters of Church and doctrine, and chiefly from the fundamental difference of their individualities; they repelled and attracted each other "because nature had not formed out of them one man." However, it can not be denied that Luther was the more magnanimous, for however much he was at times dissatisfied with Melanchthon's actions, he never uttered a word against his private character; but Melanchthon, on the other hand, sometimes evinced a lack of confidence in Luther. In a letter to Carlowitz he complained that Luther on account of his polemical nature exercised a personally humiliating pressure upon him. Luther certainly never intended to exercise such a pressure, and if it existed at all, it was Melanchthon's own fault.But as I said before I gave up a long time on your ability to grasp simple facts. That 'modification' was rejected by the Lutherian Church at the Forumula of Concord when they rejected the 'will' as being part of the conversion process.
Moving toward Erasmus is some 'modification'
