Status Updates From De ecclesia

From the footnotes (I think so was the last)
"Marcellinus, whom Jerome [Migne, 27:1111] puts among the popes, probably of the time of Diocletian, is reported to have fallen away in time of persecution and sacrificed to the gods. He acknowledged his mistake in the presence of a synod of bishops who refused to sit in judgment on him on the ground that prima sedes a nemine judicatur—the primal see is judged by no one."

"In his Postills, Doc., 729 Huss said: “Jesus went aboutpreaching on foot, and did not drive about in a splendid carriage as nowadays our priests drive. I, alas, also drive about . . . and I do not know whether it will be a sufficient excuse in the future that I have not been able to cover the long distances on foot and with sufficient speed.”"

From the footnotes:
"In his Com. on Galatians, Luther spoke of the church invisible, est invisibilis habitans in Spiritu, etc., and Zwingli seems to have been the first to use both terms, in his Expos. fidei, 1531[...]. The XXXIX Articles use the term invisible. Schwane, Dogmengesch; p. 510, says: “Huss rejected the definition that the church is a visible community of believers in Christ.”"

Strange and somewhat forced interpretation of "seat".

Furthermore, I may be wrong on this, but going by this work alone, the Church didn't have the best apologetes against Hus. Reminds me of Zwinglis debate with a priest, I believe even a Bishop.

The donatist positions of Luther, Wycliffe, Hus and other Reformers do not abolish the Magisterium or bring freedom of conscience to frutition (and Luther attacked this concept often enough), they merely shift the prerogatives of the Church to the secular authorities.

"Our side wishes and preaches that the church militant, in its different parts which God has ordained, be honestly commingled, namely, of Christ’s priests those who administer his law in purity, and from the world the nobles who press for the observance of the ordinances of Christ and the common people, both these parts serving in accordance with Christ’s law."
Politically dangerous, as were Wycliffe and Luther.

Seems like the 11th century was a particularly bad one for the Church.
