Ecclesiastical Architecture for the French Reformed Churches
View through CrossRef
Soon after Chandieu began to serve the church of Paris as co-pastor, his skills in law came to the fore with the creation of a church order, the Discipline ecclesiastique (1559). In 1565 the French Reformed churches, meeting in a synod, asked Chandieu to defend the authority of the consistory over against the congregationalist views of Jean Morély. The resulting work, the Confirmation de la discipline ecclesiastique (1566), exhibits a series of scholastic motifs that are studied. Another work, from 1567, defends the teachings of John Calvin in the form of a scholastic disputation, yet it is rather expansive and rhetorical in its prose. Study of these works establishes the state of Chandieu’s scholastic method early in his career.
