McNeill. John, Ph.D.: The History and Character of Calvinism," Ch.3--Ref...


1.     Monks, friars, and nuns were pensioned off. The Cistercians, Augustinians, Dominicans and Franciscans were forced into the Franciscan monastery—to deal with their own mutual antagonisms—while their respective abbeys were confiscated and used for hospitals and schools. Zwingli’s worship service—no singing and no organs. Zwingli resents being called a Lutheran and claims he was preaching Reformation doctrine in tandem with Luther. The Eucharist was the dividing point. The 1529 Marburg Colloquy at Philip’s behest, the Margrave of Hesse, does not end well, with Luther (again) being brutal, hostile and arrogant. 14 of 15 propositions are ratified with the Eucharist dividing them. Nonetheless, broadly, the Reformers were largely on the same sheet of music. Zwingli dies 11 Oct 1531, a Chaplain to his troops.
