In 1618 he recorded the debate on worship of Christ between Fausto Sozzini and Christian Francken. Disputatio de adoratione Christi, habita inter F. Socinum & C. Francken (246 pages).
Disputatio de adoratione Christi, habita inter F. Socinum & C. Francken, nec non fragmenta responsionis fusioris, quam F. Socinus parabat, ad F. Davidis de Christo non invocando scriptum: aliaque nonnulla ad hoc argumentum pertinentia (1618)

and of which Francis Davidis was the ostensible head.
There exists a copper-plate portrait of Francken, with a
brief account of his life, in which he is called Rector of
the School of Schmidnik, an evident mistake for Chmielnik;
and is said to have died at Clauscnburg, in the year 1590.
But Bock informs us, that he left the Antitrinitarians, and
died a Roman Catholic at Prague, towards the close of the
sixteenth century. Our concern with him, however, is as
an Antitrinitarian, which he first professed himself, as was
before stated, in 1583. In the year following, he was
appointed to the Rectorship of the School at Chmielnik;
and at a Synod, held in that town during the same year,
he challenged any of the Ministers present to a discussion
of the question, “ Whether, since Christ is not God in
the highest sense, he ought to be worshiped with religious
adoration?” This challenge was thrown out in a very
haughty and supercilious manner; and accompanied by an
expression of contempt for the erudition and capacity of
the Ministers present. Tliat he might, by the number of
his arguments, confound and overwhelm any one who should
