A Treatise of the Cohabitacyon of the Faithfull with the Vnfaithfull.: Whereunto is Added. a Sermon Made of the Confessing of Christe and His Gospell, and of the Denyinge of the Same.
Translated by Thomas Becon
In the crucible of the Reformation, when Catholic and Protestant families lived cheek by jowl across Europe, one question burned hotter than all others: can the faithful share their homes, their tables, their lives with those who hold false beliefs? Pietro Martire Vermigli, a biblical scholar who fled Italy for his Protestant faith and taught at Oxford, wrestles with this explosive problem in his mid-16th century treatise. Should a Christian attend a Catholic mass? May a Protestant marry a Catholic? Can you do business with idolaters without becoming one yourself? Vermigli answers through close reading of scripture, theological reasoning, and examples drawn from biblical history, arguing that while some interaction may be unavoidable, the faithful must never compromise their witness or become a stumbling block to others. This is not abstract theology but urgent pastoral advice for a world where religious difference touched every aspect of daily life. For anyone curious about how Reformation thinkers actually navigated the messy reality of religious coexistence, this treatise offers a fascinating window into their anxieties, their principles, and their practical wisdom.
