| Abstract [eng] |
This article examines the unique ecumenical document of late 16 century by which the Polish and Lithuanian Reformed, Bohemian Brethren, and Lutherans sought to obtain legal standing in the country. It was the goal of the Protestants to formulate a common confession in the Synod of Sandomierz. This, however, proved to be impossible; only a document of common consent entitled Consensus of Sandomierz could be reached and an agreement to further theological consultations. The details of the Consensus are examined from a theological perspective. The author shows that theological differences concerning Holy Communion gave the document only limited value. |
