Protestant Reformation Theology
Protestant Reformation Theology refers to the theological beliefs and doctrines that emerged during the 16th century Protestant Reformation. This theological movement challenged and sought to reform certain teachings and practices of the Roman Catholic Church, ultimately leading to the establishment of various Protestant denominations. Key aspects of Protestant Reformation Theology include the doctrine of justification by faith alone, the authority of Scripture over tradition, the priesthood of all believers, and an emphasis on the sovereignty of God in salvation. The movement was led by reformers such as Martin Luther, John Calvin, and Huldrych Zwingli, who sought to return to what they believed to be the pure teachings of the early Christian church.
