"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old
has passed away; behold, the new has come." When the Reformers of
the sixteenth century turned to this biblical text, originally
written by Paul to the first-century church in Corinth, they found
truths that apply to Christians regardless of their historical
context. For example, Reformed theologian Wolfgang Musculus wrote,
"To be a Christian is to be in Christ. If anyone is outside of
Christ, he is not a Christian. It is easy to partake of the
sacraments and to be of the name and profession of Christ, but that
is not what it means to be in Christ... The largest part of
Christians is still an old creature for they have not yet been
regenerated and renewed by the spirit of Christ. To know a
Christian, therefore, we should not so much examine his external
profession, but his life." In this volume of the Reformation
Commentary on Scripture, Reformation scholar Scott Manetsch guides
readers through a wealth of early modern commentary on the book of
2 Corinthians. Readers will hear from familiar voices and discover
lesser-known figures from a diversity of theological traditions,
including Lutherans, Reformed, Radicals, Anglicans and Roman
Catholics. Drawing upon a variety of resources-including
commentaries, sermons, treatises, and confessions-much of which
appears here for the first time in English, this volume provides
resources for contemporary preachers, enables scholars to better
understand the depth and breadth of Reformation commentary, and
seeks to encourage all those who would be newly created in Christ.
