The Heidelberg Disputation was held at the lecture hall of the Augustinian order on April 26, 1518.[1] It was here that Martin Luther, as a delegate for his order, began to have occasion to articulate his views. In the defense of his theses, which culminated in a contrast between divine love and human love,[2] Luther defended the doctrine of human depravity and the bondage of the will. Martin Bucer, the reformer of Strasbourg, heard Luther here and became an avid follower.[3] This disputation also led to Johann Eck's challenging Martin Luther to the Leipzig Debate.[4]
28 theses
The Heidelberg 28 theses based the disputation, and represented a significant evolution from the 95 theses of the previous year from a simple dispute about the theology behind the indulgences to a fuller, Augustinian, theology of sovereign grace.[5]
