3-The Great Division by Norman Sykes
Dixie Professor of Ecclesiastical History in the University of Cambridge
The period of the Reformation brought many changes to the Christian Church in Europe. Most permanent among these are the new attitude to the Bible and the beginnings of public worship in the language of the people. Professor Norman Sykes sketches briefly some of the main causes and consequences of the Reformation. He speaks principally of the religious characteristics and the meaning that these have today.
