This study focuses on the so-called Revocation Sermons (Revocations-Predigte, also referred to as Wiederrufs-Predigte), i.e. the sermons in which their authors, clergymen, publicly renounced their Catholic faith and declared their adherence to a Protestant faith. They are, in fact, a type of primary source which is a component of the contemporary controversy, which was a discourse both theological and ecclesiastical-political in its nature. They highlight the complexity of contemporary religious situations and the issue of conversion (and apostasy), including, to a certain degree, also the problem of confessional violence and the awareness of it.

The study is concerned with the so-called revocation sermons (Revocations-Predigte, sometimes also Wiederrufs-Predigte), i. e. sermons, in which their clerical authors openly revoked their Catholic confession and claimed allegiance to the evangelic confession. These sources thus represent an interesting material for monitoring of conversion from Catholicism to Protestantism in the German evangelic milieu, at least partly pointing out the confessional violence and its perception.

Polish Bernardines of 16th century were perceived, also by Protestants, as determined defenders of the faith and Catholic Church. They took up this duty quite early, starting from the 1520s. They did it by means of proven methods such as preaching, confession, liturgy, religious songs, holding offices of fund-collectors and courtly chaplains, and organising religious brotherhoods near monasteries. Owing to solid theological education and living a moral life on a proper level, there are only three Bernardines known by their names who moved to the Protestant camp. Only one monastery in Wschowa was lost in favour of Protestants. On the other hand, Bernardines took over Prussian monasteries in Lubawa, Barczewo, Nowe, Gdańsk and Toruń after the Saxon monastic St. John the Baptist’s province fell at the time of reformation. It is thanks to provincial ministers that Bernardine monasteries were protected from reformation.

Bernardyni polscy w XVI wieku byli postrzegani, także przez protestantów, jako zdecydowani obrońcy wiary i Kościoła katolickiego. Działalność tę podjęli bardzo wcześnie, bo już w latach 20. XVI wieku. Wykorzystywali w niej tradycyjne metody: kaznodziejstwo, spowiedź, liturgię, pieśń religijną, piastowane funkcje kwestarzy i kapelanów dworskich, organizowanie przyklasztornych bractw religijnych. Dzięki dobremu wykształceniu teologicznemu oraz prowadzeniu życia moralnego na odpowiednim poziomie jedynie trzech znanych z imienia i nazwiska bernardynów przeszło do obozu protestanckiego. Zakonnicy utracili na rzecz protestantów tylko jeden klasztor we Wschowie, a przejęli klasztory pruskie w Lubawie, Barczewie, Nowem, Gdańsku oraz Toruniu po upadłej w okresie reformacji saskiej prowincji zakonnej św. Jana Chrzciciela. W znacznej mierze jest to zasługa prowincjałów, którzy potrafili uchronić klasztory bernardyńskie przed reformacją.
