 Johann Agricola (theologian) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Johann Agricola (1492-1566) was a German theologian, follower and friend of Luther, who became his antagonist in the matter of the binding obligation of the law on Christians.
Agricola, who was from Luther's home town of Eisleben, became the leading figure of the Antinomians.
It was an irony that one of the most radical Reformers ended his life viewed as having sold out to the Catholics.

 Cantata BWV 177 - Discussions
Johann Agricola is the subject of one of Robert Browning's self-revealing, dramatic monologues "Johannes Agricola in Meditation".
Johann Agricola (the antinomianist) (1494-1566) consideby some to be the author of the chorale text on which BWV 177 is based, is very likely not the author of this chorale.
The chorale melody is definitely not by Johann Agricola as it appears possibly to be even secular rather than sacred in origin, a contrafact that still remains to be traced to its true origin.

April 20, 1494: Johann Agricola, Saxon theologian and reformer, is born.

Agricola fled to Berlin, and the elector Joachim II of Brandenburg took him into his favor, appointing him court preacher and general superintendent, offices that he held until his death.
Agricola's career in Brandenburg became one of great activity and influence.
He was undoubtedly a gifted man, though his rightful development was hindered by his vanity, which brought about the breach with Luther, and by the temptations of court life, which, as he himself recognized when too late, he had not sufficient strength of mind to resist.

 The Standard Bearer: July 1, 2002
While Johann Agricola occupied an important place in the Lutheran Reformation, and while he could have been of inestimable help to the cause of the truth of Jesus Christ when that truth was being rescued from the clammy hands of the bishop of Rome, he forfeited his right to occupy this noble place.
Agricola taught that the law and the gospel were totally opposed to each other, and that only the gospel ought to be preached in the church.
Agricola claimed that, while this was probably true, the only knowledge of sin which the law stirred up in man was the knowledge of damnation.

The Nicolaitans carried it to the extreme reading we find here, but they, like their principal echo, Johann Agricola in the sixteenth century, put it better than this Smile Button iconography cobbled together with remnants of nineteenth-century liberal Christology.
While doctrines are only "metaphorical statements" (a statement caricaturing the complex business of what is called analogia entis), certain theologians are reliable: principally John Shelby Spong, who calls Bawer "one of this nation's premier religious commentators," and Hans Kung ("perhaps the most distinguished theologian of our time").
On the down side, St. Augustine and other early Fathers gave us at least 1,046 doctrines, of which "only nine concern love." It is also outrageous, I suppose, that not a single clause of the U.S. Constitution concerns oxygen.
