 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Johann Eck
Eck had also a considerable share in organizing the "Catholic Federation", founded 5 June, 1524, by the leaders in Church and State for the purpose of safeguarding the ancient faith and enforcing the Edict of Worms.
In the negotiations relative to the Council of Trent, Eck was consulted by the emperor, Charles V, as well as by the pope, Paul III, and was charged by the latter with preliminary work for the council.
His adversaries, lampooning him publicly, taxed him with drunkenness and immorality; but the general tone of the writings published against Eck and the readiness of the Protestants to calumniate their victorious opponent, arouse strong suspicion as to the truth of these accusations and make them, so far as the evidence goes, altogether improbable.

When he was trying to confuse Luther with quotations from the church fathers and councils, Luther quoted history and Scripture and finally said, "You run away from the Bible like the devil from the Cross." Eck at last made Luther declare that under certain circumstances it might be right to disobey the pope and council.
Eck then went to Rome in 1520 and returned with a papal bull against Luther, in attempting to publish which he met with violent opposition.
In 1530, while at the diet of Augsburg, he made the remarkable admission that he could confute the Augsburg Confession by the fathers but not by the Scriptures.
