The post in question can’t even seem to get history right.
The 95 Theses were the start of the Reformation and when Luther was still trying to get the Catholics to return to the Biblical faith.
If he wanted an actual declaration of faith to attack, he’d want to look at the Augsburg Confession, many years later.
This on top of the previous post in this thread, in which I excoriate the gentleman above for not even knowing what Lutherans believe regarding good works.
It’s amazing the strawmen they’ll set up. If there’s a real Biblical and Apostolic argument for Romanism, you’d think that the detractors on this thread would have posted it by now.
Instead it’s a combination of ‘WE WUZ FIRST!’ and ‘LUTHER IS HITLER!’
You forget that, like as with Scripture and tradition, church history only means what Rome says it does, as Manning essentially argued in order to deal with contrary testimony:
t was the charge of the Reformers that the Catholic doctrines were not primitive, and their pretension was to revert to antiquity. But the appeal to antiquity is both a treason and a heresy. It is a treason because it rejects the Divine voice of the Church at this hour, and a heresy because it denies that voice to be Divine...The only Divine evidence to us of what was primitive is the witness and voice of the Church at this hour. Dr. Henry Edward Cardinal Manning, Lord Archbishop of Westminster, The Temporal Mission of the Holy Ghost: Or Reason and Revelation (New York: J.P. Kenedy & Sons, originally written 1865, reprinted with no date), pp. 227-228.
And don't forget the derogatory use of "thumpers" to label all of us who DO hold to the sufficiency of Divinely-inspired Scripture - of all things!
