Summary
"David's book focuses on the middle course steered by the Utraquist church after the onset of the Protestant Reformation. It rejected core Protestant beliefs, such as salvation by faith alone, and practice. At the same time, the Utraquists pursued their orthodoxy by disputation, rather than by hurling anathemas, and lived alongside Lutherans, the Unity of Brethen, and others. Ultimately the Utraquist church was reabsorbed into Roman Catholicism and its special features repressed in the Counterreformation."--BOOK JACKET.
