In the sixteenth century, the Spanish Inquisition's approach to Lutheranism shifted from benign to relentless persecution under Inquisitor General Fernando de Valdés. Constantino, a fervent preacher, faced imprisonment after his last sermon. His work, Beatus Vir, explores sin, grace, and faith, emphasizing the contrast between human perceptions and divine truth.
