| | Thus began the seventy year period known as the “<<b>bb>>Babylonianb>bb>> Captivity of the Church” (1309-1378), during which the Popes increasingly lost touch with their spiritual goals, lost their spiritual and temporal prestige, and found the very foundations of their hierocratic vision for Christian society crumbling beneath their feet. | | | One of the most important struggles to take place during the <<b>bb>>Babylonianb>bb>> Captivity was that between Pope John XXII and the Emperior Lewis of Bavaria. | | | In 1378 the “<<b>bb>>Babylonianb>bb>> Captivity” of the Papacy came to an end with the return to Rome of the Papacy under Gregory XI (r. |

| | How to Pray for a Desolate Church |
| | In 1520, Martin Luther wrote an essay which he called "The <<b>bb>>Babylonianb>bb>> Captivity of the Church." What he meant was that forces and powers that were foreign to Christ and to his word had captured the mind and heart of the church. | | | So when we pray for a desolate church, we can remember brighter days that the church has known, and darker days from which she was saved. | | | Without the Bible in our prayers, they will be just as worldly as the church we are trying to free from worldliness. |

| | Rome taught that God had given all grace to the Church and it was the function and prerogative of the Church exclusively to dispense that grace to the faithful by means of the sacraments. | | | Those three walls included the distinction between the clerical and the lay members of the Church, the claim that the Pope was the supreme interpreter of Scripture, and the teaching that the Pope was the supreme authority in the Church. | | | Where this doctrine was not taught or obscured, the church was departing from the grace of God. |

| | Private Confession in the Lutheran Church |
| | The Lutheran Church can restudy what God has revealed to her about the means of grace and what her Confessions state on the basis of the holy scriptures about private confession and absolution and its use in the Church. | | | In the Reformed churches ministers are hired by the congregation and are not always understood as the mouthpieces and representatives of Christ. | | | At the same time the Lutheran Church insists in its official confessions that there is a subjective and objective necessity for it which caused it to develop in the Church, and that it is not contrary to the scriptures, but rather in harmony with its doctrines, if it is practiced rightly. |

| | title |
| | In The <<b>bb>>Babylonianb>bb>> Captivity of the Church, Luther explains baptism as "the divine promise" of salvation, which requires human faith. | | | His model was the "ancient church," by which he meant the church "prior to the papacy." Behind this principle lay his adherence to the divine will given in Scripture. | | | Baptism was an important issue because it came to be the means of distinguishing between a pure church of known believers, visible to all, and a mass of people indiscriminately baptized as infants, a church that included good and bad alike. |

| | The third captivity of this sacrament is that most wicked abuse of all, in consequence of which there is today no more generally accepted and firmly believed opinion in the Church than this, that the mass is a good work and a sacrifice. | | | Under this captivity, they take every precaution that no layman should hear these words of Christ, as if they were too sacred to be delivered to the common people. | | | The platter, empty of the traditional iconography of the slain lamb, signifies the commemorative character of the meal: not a sacrifice but the acceptance of a promise made once for all in the death of Christ. |
