This inspiring collection of essays spells out the relevance of
John Calvin's theology for today in three areas: Faith ? Calvin's
theology asks how God deals with the persistent presence of human
sin. For Calvin, the chief end of life is to know God and devote
our life to his glory. The still topical point is that we are freed
from our fixation with ourselves, thereby recognising and living
out our true reality in relation to God. Ecumenism ? The unity of
the Church in Christ is of central importance to Calvin. We must do
our utmost to make it visible. In Calvin's view, if there is
agreement in the understanding of God and grace, all other
differences have no divisive importance. This still characterises
Reformed understanding today. Public responsibility ? Calvin posed
the question about the church's public responsibility as no other
Reformer did. Part 3 reveals the sources of the worldwide impact of
Calvin's and Reformed theology on politics, the law, scholarship
and the organising of life in society, including civil society.
