About this sermon
The Church Councils series continues with Dr. Alan Fimister as we examine the Fifth Lateran Council (1512–1517)—the final Ecumenical Council before Martin Luther published his Ninety-Five Theses. In this episode, Dr. Fimister explains the political, theological, and spiritual climate that existed immediately before the Protestant Reformation. Learn why the council failed to reform the corruption that plagued the Renaissance papacy, how it defeated the Conciliarist movement, and why only months later Europe would be plunged into one of the greatest crises in Church history. Topics include: The Renaissance Papacy Pope Julius II and Pope Leo X The Pseudo-Council of Pisa Conciliarism Savonarola The rebuilding of St. Peter's Basilica Indulgences before Luther Mountains of Piety and Usury The immortality of the soul The fall of Constantinople's aftermath Why the Reformation erupted only months later If you enjoy this Church Councils series, please Like, Subscribe, and share this video to help preserve authentic Catholic history.
