Calvin's Bible Commentaries 11.0
John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible A classic commentary ontheOldand New Testaments, complete and unabridged. Written inaclear,lucid style, it combines a profound reverence for theBiblewith arare objectivity in its exegesis. One of themostinfluential biblescholars of all time, John Calvin,althoughcontroversial, is a forceto be reckoned with. Hiscommentariesreflect an incredible commandof the Scriptures, as hesought tointegrate the entirety of itsteaching by combining asolidexegetical method with a pastoralinsight that is oftenneglectedin commentaries today. Calvin strikesa balance betweenpassion andrestraint, often infusing his writingwith a distinctquality ofcontrolled intensity. Scholars nowrecognize Calvin asabove allelse a teacher. He sought to open theWord of God inscripture tothe common people from whom, he believed,the Bible hadbeenwithheld by the scholastics, monks and priests ofthe Romanchurch.By recapturing scripture's simple, genuine andnaturalsense,Calvin returned scripture to its rightful place inthechurch. Hissole object as a teacher was "to lay down a pathwaytothe readingof sacred Scripture for the simple and uneducated."JohnCalvin(Middle French: Jean Cauvin; 10 July 1509 -- 27 May 1564)wasaninfluential French theologian and pastor duringtheProtestantReformation. He was a principal figure in thedevelopmentof thesystem of Christian theology later calledCalvinism.Originallytrained as a humanist lawyer, he broke from theRomanCatholicChurch around 1530. After religious tensions provokedaviolentuprising against Protestants in France, Calvin fledtoBasel,Switzerland, where in 1536 he published the first editionofhisseminal work Institutes of the Christian Religion. Calvinwasatireless polemic and apologetic writer whogeneratedmuchcontroversy. He also exchanged cordial and supportiveletterswithmany reformers including Philipp MelanchthonandHeinrichBullinger. In addition to the Institutes, hewrotecommentaries onmost books of the Bible as well astheologicaltreatises andconfessional documents, and he regularlygave sermonsthroughoutthe week in Geneva. Calvin was influenced bytheAugustiniantradition, which led him to expound the doctrineofpredestinationand the absolute sovereignty of God insalvation.Calvin's writingand preachings provided the seeds for thebranch oftheology thatbears his name. The Presbyterian and otherReformedchurches, whichlook to Calvin as a chief expositor oftheirbeliefs, have spreadthroughout the world. Calvin's thoughtexertedconsiderableinfluence over major religious figures andentirereligiousmovements, such as Puritanism, and somepoliticalhistorians haveargued that his ideas have contributed tothe riseof capitalism,individualism, and representative democracyin theWest.

1689 London Baptist Confession 1.0
1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith(withproofs)As described by Charles Haddon SpurgeonThis ancient document is a most excellent epitome of thethingsmost surely believed among us. By the preserving hand of theTriuneJehovah we have been kept faithful to the great points ofourglorious Gospel, and we feel more resolved perpetually to abidebythem.This little volume is not issued as an authoritative rule,orcode of faith, whereby ye are to be fettered, but as anassistanceto you in controversy, a confirmation in faith, and ameans ofedification in righteousness. Here the younger members ofourchurch will have a body of divinity in small compass, and bymeansof the scriptural proofs, will be ready to give a reason forthehope that is in them.Be not ashamed of your faith; remember it is the ancientGospelof martyrs, confessors, reformers, and saints. Above all, itis theTruth of God against which the gates of hell cannot prevail.Letyour lives adorn your faith, let your example recommend yourcreed.Above all, live in Christ Jesus, and walk in Him, givingcredenceto no teaching but that which is manifestly approved ofHim, andowned by the Holy Spirit. Cleave fast to the Word of God,which ishere mapped out to you.- C. H. SpurgeonAttribution:Pilgrim's Progress graphic obtained by permission. http://www.bunyanministries.org/commentary_pp.htm
