Download or read book English Hypothetical Universalism written by Jonathan D. Moore and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2007-06-25 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Preston (1587-1628) stands as a key figure in the development of English Reformed orthodoxy in the courts of ElizabetháI and JamesáVI. Often cited as a favorite of the English and American Puritans who came after him, he nevertheless stood as a bridge between the crown and the nonconformists. Jonathan D. Moore retrieves Preston from his traditional place as one of the "Calvinists against Calvin," provides a convincing argument for Preston's unique hypothetical universalism, and calls into question common misperceptions about Reformed theology and Puritanism.
Download or read book Calvin and English Calvinism to 1649 written by R. T. Kendall and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2011-02-01 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To this groundbreaking work, originally published by theÊOxford University Press in the 1980s, the author has added a new preface and two appendices, oneÊof which consists of extracts from Calvin's Commentaries. The author demonstrates that the English Puritans, who he calls experimental predestinarians, were followers of John Calvin's successor inÊGeneva, Theodore Beza, and not of Calvin himself. R. T. Kendall maintains that what became knownÊas English Calvinism was largely the thought of Beza, not Calvin. His book is an importantÊclarification of Calvin's position in relation to those who have been regarded as his followers.

Download or read book The Treasury of David written by Gene Fedele and published by Destiny Image Publishers. This book was released on 2024-05-01 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles H. Spurgeon (1834-1892) was one of the most renowned preachers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ as well as a prolific writer of evangelical works that have impacted the Christian Church over the past two centuries. His Treasury of David is his classic work on the book of Psalms which was originally published within the pages of his The Sword and The Trowel magazine over a 20-year period from 1865-1885, and then published in its entirety in a classic seven-volume set in 1885. The Treasury of David is quite unique in its composition as Spurgeon spent countless hours in libraries searching through the annals of eminent Christian authors throughout Church history for the choice comments he included with each verse of every Psalm—such as, Jonathan Edwards, Augustine, Thomas Brooks, Martin Luther, John Bunyan, Athanasius, Josephus, John Calvin, Thomas Goodwin, Richard Baxter, William Jay, John Trapp, Richard Hooker, William Gurnall, and many more. Upon completion of this work, Spurgeon comments, "The Book of Psalms instructs us in the use of wings as well as words. It sets us both mounting and singing. If I may only hope that these volumes will be as useful to other hearts in the reading as to mine in the writing, I shall be well rewarded by the prospect." One of Spurgeon's pastoral successors at the Metropolitan Tabernacle, Eric Hayden, once called this “Spurgeon’s Magnus Opus,” and his wife, Suzannah, remarked that if her husband had never written any other work, this would have been “a permanent literary memorial.” The publishers at Bridge Logos have republished this superb set from the original 1885 first edition in an easy-to-read 10-volume set which is conveniently divided into volumes that reflect the biblical delineation of the Five Books of the Psalms—and includes a biography of C. H. Spurgeon, by Pure Gold Classics editor, Gene Fedele. “This extraordinary set of commentaries on the Psalms, from one of the Church’s last eminent 'Puritans,’ has educated and inspired generations of Christians since its first release, nearly 150 years ago, and it is our hope and prayer that through this “Treasure” many more will be richly blessed and encouraged in their faith, now and for generations to come,” comments Fedele. This Pure Gold Classics edition of The Treasury of David, by Charles H. Spurgeon (1834-1892), is an expanded 10-volume set, published by Bridge Logos, intentionally divided into the Five Books of the Psalms delineated in the Holy Bible (AKJV). The Treasury of David: Volume Three (1865-1885) is an exposition of Psalms 28-41 and includes an introduction, by editor, Gene Fedele. This Third volume, along with volumes One and Two are the complete commentary of Book One (of Five) of the Psalms, comprised of Psalms 1-41. Each Psalm is expounded, verse by verse, by the “Prince of Preachers” and includes precious biblical insights and applications on the Scripture texts hundreds of eminent Christians throughout history—such as John Bunyan, Martin Luther, Thomas Brooks, Jonathan Edwards, Augustine, John Calvin, William Jay, Erasmus, John Newton, Samuel Rutherford, John Flavel, Matthew Henry, Ambrose, John Trapp, and many more. As Spurgeon reflects, “More and more is the conviction forced upon my heart that every man must traverse the territory of the Psalms himself if he would come to know what a goodly land they are...None but the Holy Spirit can give a man the key to the treasury of David.” This classic set remains a priceless “Treasure” of divine spiritual nourishment for every child of God."

Download or read book The Covenant of Grace in Puritan Thought written by John Von Rohr and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2010-09-01 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive account of the major theological themes in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth century Puritanism of England and New England as seen through the concept "covenant of grace." The covenant of grace, von Rohr argues, enabled Puritanism to affirm both a continuation of Calvinistic predestinationism and an emergent voluntaristic pietism, pastorally both the absolute and conditional promises of God. An extensive array of primary source material is used in substantiating the author's thesis.
Download or read book The Cambridge Platonists and Early Modern Philosophy written by Samuel M. Kaldas and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2024-05-16 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often neglected by historians today, the seventeenth-century philosophers known as the Cambridge Platonists were recognised in their time as some of the most influential and controversial philosophers in England. Whereas most studies of the Cambridge Platonists have discussed their later careers, this book focuses on their early, formative years at Cambridge during the English Civil Wars. Samuel M. Kaldas explores how the Cambridge Platonists addressed issues central to philosophy of religion as we know it today through their engagement with early seventeenth-century religious controversies about predestination, the character and nature of God, and the role of reason in religion. His study serves as an accessible introduction to both the Cambridge Platonists, and to English religious controversies that contributed to the birth of the modern philosophy of religion. At the same time, Kaldas provides context for and fresh insights into the Cambridge Platonists' intellectual development and the coherence of their thought.
