He was of German nationality and came from Potsdam. He was a Lutheran pastor in the Brandenburg Marchen, but secretly professed anti-titnicism and shared Socin's views. From 1626 he began to profess his faith and moved to Poland, where he began to work in the centers of the Polish brothers. He became one of the most prolific polemicists and defenders of Polish anti-tritanism, combating not only Catholicism but also traditional Protestantism (such as Brevis disqualification an et quo mado vulgo dicti Evangelici Pontificios, and Val nominated by the Magni de Acatholicorum credendi regula. Eleutheropoli (Amsterdam) 1633 and Eleutheropoli (London) 1650-1651; English translation, London 1653).
He was a teacher and rector of the Rakow Academy and contributed to the flourishing of this university. He wrote an innovative textbook for mathematics and geometry. He wrote treatises detailing the theology of the Polish brethren, especially about the philosophy of religion. He was the predecessor of Wiszowate - he recognized that certain issues of faith should be dealt with according to logic and common sense. Sent to Transylvania in 1633 to take up a clerical position there, he died in Koloszwar (now Cluj-Napoca). Citations
Although philosophy itself does not teach us Christian religion, nor does our understanding of it ever perfectly lead us out of the philosophical principles itself, and we must learn about it from the divine revelation, the revelation of which, as we shall see later, In Scripture, it is so formulated that it indeed requires a prior, even mediocre knowledge of philosophy, and the same philosophy requires knowledge of Scripture.
Although human reason has not invented the mysteries of the Christian faith, however, since they have been revealed by God through Christ, a healthy reason recognizes them as truth and agrees with them. (Judge in Disputes for Faith, Book I, Chapter 3)
