A prince, a pastor and a professor come to Heidelberg and effect
theological change in the castle, church and college just as God
had ordained to occur. Reformation had been occurring across Europe
when Frederick III, surnamed Frederick the Pious (1515-1576),
became Elector of the Palatinate in 1559. Max Gobel wrote, "The
Heidelberg Catechism may be regarded as the flower and fruit of the
entire German and French Reformation; it has Lutheran fervor,
Melanchthonian clearness, Zwinglian simplicity, and Calvinistic
fire blended into one . . ," giving evidence that Elector Frederick
III's desire for unity was accomplished in both the formation and
publication of the Heidelberg Catechism. Tracing the Hand of God
(His Providence) through these three men is intended to help
today's believer understand that God is both Omnipotent and
Omnibenevolent, that these two are not at odds with each other. The
problem of pain is dealt with from a catechetical position using
these three main composers of the Heidelberg as examples of God's
Rule and Care for His Creation, His Church and His child/ren.
