Synopsis

Engage with a fiery seventeenth‑century debate about faith, authority, and doctrinal power.

In this second conversation, a Roman Catholic lord and a Church of England gentleman dissect how faith, sacraments, and church authority shape salvation and practice.

Two voices contend over the nature of grace, the meaning of baptism and penance, and the role of faith and works. The exchange dives into contested topics like transubstantiation, the operation of grace, and the limits of human reason in matters of belief.
