This Charge Against Protestants Has To Stop — Here's Why

Protestants are often accused of breaking with the historic Church by inventing a new, overly “literal” way of reading the Bible, but is that charge actually true? In this video, we slow the claim down and examine whether the Reformers really abandoned the Church’s historic approach to Scripture, or whether they were clarifying something specific. By looking at how both the early and medieval Church read the Bible and how the Reformers understood their own project, we’ll test this claim that gets repeated constantly but is rarely examined carefully. 💰 DONATE & SUPPORT: https://givebutter.com/canonandcreed Canon & Creed is a channel for Christians who want to: ✅ Understand historic confessional Protestantism ✅ Defend the faith with clarity, conviction, and depth ✅ Cut through modern myths, pop theology, and bad history 🔔 Subscribe & turn on notifications so you don’t miss what’s next Canon & Creed Theme Song: CSM-LM Docking by Adam Young © All Credit & Rights CHAPTERS: 00:00 - Intro 01:37 - Competing Interpretations of Scripture 07:53 - The Reformers' Biblical Reading Methods 10:31 - Allegorical Interpretation in the Middle Ages 13:16 - Origen's Influence on Scripture 19:02 - "Novelty" of Reformation Ideas 21:48 - Conclusion and Summary #apologetics #protestantreformation #churchhistory #catholicism
