"This is the gospel, that sins are remitted in the name of Christ; and no heart ever received tidings more glad." Huldrych Zwingli's contribution to the Reformation may have been just as important as Luther and Calvin's, yet many still don't know much about him, let alone read his powerful works. Zwingli preached against ecclesial corruption, fasting, the requirement of celibacy on the clergy, the veneration of saints, excommunication, and more—setting the stage for the Swiss Reformation. The Works of Zwingli (7 vols.) assembles some of Zwingli's most important works translated into English and includes historical works about his life and legacy.
Included in this important collection are "A Short and Clear Exposition of the Christian Faith," "Commentary on the True and False Religion," "The Fable of the Ox," and many more works that solidified Zwingli's place in history as one of the Reformation's most influential voices. Samuel Jackson and Samuel Simpson's biographies of Zwingli help place Zwingli in the proper theological and political context. And Jim West's 'Christ Our Captain': An Introduction to Huldrych Zwingli provides original translations—the first time some of these have appeared in English—of excerpts from Zwingli‘s works on topics such as prayer, Christ, salvation, heaven, and more, along with commentary that illuminates the power and piety of Zwingli's work.
