The Apology of the Augsburg Confession by Philipp Melanchthon
"The Apology of the Augsburg Confession" by Philipp Melanchthon is a theological defense written during and after the 1530 Diet of Augsburg. Composed as a response to the official Catholic refutation of Lutheran beliefs, this document became the longest text in the Book of Concord. It offers the most detailed Lutheran defense against Roman Catholicism of its era, with extensive arguments on justification, sacraments, church traditions, and other contested doctrines that divided
Christianity during the Reformation. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
