Origin from 1563
The Strasbourg Consensus was a joint statement of doctrine agreed by Reformed and Lutheran theologians and signed at Strasbourg in March 1563, resolving disputes over predestination, the perseverance of the saints, and the Lord's Supper that had divided the city's church from 1561 to 1563 between the pastor Johann Marbach and the professor Girolamo Zanchi. Mediators from Basel, including Simon Sulzer, drafted the articles that ended the dispute, and the agreement specified that the Lord's Supper in Strasbourg would follow the Augsburg Confession, its Apology, and the Wittenberg Concord rather than the city's own earlier Tetrapolitan Confession.
