Huldrych Zwingli was the man who brought the Reformation to Switzerland. And his life, and work, seems to have mirrored that of the much more famous Martin Luther. Like Luther, he was exposed to the Bible in the original languages by Erasmus. Like Luther, he nailed these to a cathedral door. Like Luther he preached from the Bible. Like Luther, he married. Like Luther, he completely transformed a city and a country. However, Zwingli seems to have had no interaction with Luther in any of the crucial early phases of the Reformation in Switzerland. Zwingli emerged completely by God’s grace, through the exposure he had to God’s word. In this sense, Zwingli is unique amongst the Reformers – and it bears us well to remember him!
