Synopsis

The treatises in this volume begin and end with this same point: Justification is by faith and faith alone. Composed under different circumstances by giants of the Reformed tradition--Theodore Beza (1519-1605), Amandus Polanus (1561-1610), and Francis Turretin (1623-87)--they represent various approaches to the same doctrine. Presented in English for the first time, these texts proved the article on which the Church stands or falls from exegetical, systematic, academic, and polemical perspectives. Together they offer a new window into post-Reformational thought theological concerns, including the nature of faith, good works, sanctification, union with Christ, the Holy Spirit, hermeneutics, the unity of Scripture, and more.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Theodore Beza (1519-1605) was an influential French Protestant pastor and successor of John Calvin at the Geneva Academy. His writings were essential for carrying on Calvin's legacy and defending a burgeoning Protestantism from the Roman Catholic church.
Amandus Polanus (1561-1610) was an influential German Reformed theologian. He studied at the University of Geneva under Theodore Bez and at the Universities of Heidelberg and Basel. As an early Reformed dogmatician, Polanus was one of the most significant figures in the Reformed tradition prior to the Synod of Dort.
Francis Turretin (1623-87) has been called "the best expounder of the doctrine of the Reformed Church" (Samuel Alexander), "a marvelous synthesizer" (Roger Nicole), and "a towering figure among the Genevan Reformers (Leon Morris). His Institutes of Elenctic Theology, first published in 1679-85, was the fruit of some thirty years of teaching at the Academy of Geneva.
