Synopsis

Most English-speakers know very little about the dramatic events surrounding the Spanish reformation of the 16th century due to the Inquisition’s incredible success of suppressing Protestantism, especially in Spain. Now, for the first time, English-speakers can read the only confession of faith that was written by Spaniards during the 16th century based on the original Spanish and Latin texts. Casiodoro de Reina (of the Spanish Reina-Valera Bible translation) was the principal author of the confession. He was influenced by all of the major strands of Reformation thought (Lutheran, Reformed, Anglican, and Anabaptist), and this shows up in this work. Reina appears to have been more of a pacifist in his theological outlook, attempting to be truly “catholic” in outlook.
