John Calvin (1509-64) was a key figure in what we now call the
European Reformation; but his influence extends to the twentieth
century, most notably through the theology of Karl Barth.
Outstanding as biblical scholar, preacher and practical Church
reformer, Calvin intended all his work to be service of the Word of
God. Although couched in sixteenth-century terms, his theology drew
on the wealth of previous Christian thinking and possesses an
enduring quality which makes it relevant to the situation of the
Church today. This book provides a solid and comprehensive
introduction to the whole range of Calvin's theology. Concentrating
on Calvin's major work, The Institutes of the Christian Religion,
it explains what he has to say to all Christians at all times. It
leads readers through the text of the Institutes in a new and
original way that will give them a serious sense of Calvin both as
a Christian and as a thinker.
