    新教综述 Protestantism

    16世纪宗教改革运动中脱离亦译为

    15思想文化上,经院主义神学日渐衰落,文艺复兴产生巨大影响,这一切都为宗教改革创新教所代表的抗议原则和精神可追溯到1416世纪20年代,马丁·路德在德国发起的宗教改革运动席卷全德;在瑞士,加尔文和茨温利的改革活动进一步扩大和加深了新教的影响;英王亨利八世出于政治原因推行自上而下的宗教改革,在克兰麦的协助下,组成具有独特形式的新教教会,以摆脱教皇的管辖。到16世纪中叶,新教的三个主要教派,即马丁·路德创立的路德宗、加尔文创立的归正宗和作为英格兰国教的安立甘宗,都已在欧洲出现。16世纪末到17世纪初,新教的三个主要宗派在教会组织和崇拜仪式上已基本定型;对教义的表述和阐述,经过长期的争论,也逐渐形成体系。在此之后,随着资本主义的发展,新教内部又出现了许多派别,教义也有了各种发展和变化。17世纪,英格兰的清教徒运动要求以加尔文主义改革保守的安立甘国教会,结果产生了一些脱离国教的新宗派,如长老会、公理会等。清教徒运动后来由移民传到美洲,使新教在北美发展成为影响最广的教派。同一时期,在德国也出现了以斯彭内尔为代表的虔敬运动,与英国清教徒运动相呼应。
