Book Description
Excerpt from Creed of Presbyterians This is not another essay on The Five Points. Such treatises have their place and value, but they present our system, and only the anti-arminian part of it at that, in its bones. They furnish no adequate con ception of that divinely vital and exuber ant Calvinism, the creator of the modern world, the mother of heroes, saints and martyrs in number without number, which history, judging the tree by its fruits, crowns as the greatest creed of Christen dom. This historic faith of the Presbyterian Church'has in recent years been assailed with the most searching criticism, the most merciless caricature, the most vivid and eloquent abuse. That in this and every other conflict it will come off more-than conqueror, we have no shadow of doubt. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Heidelberg Catechism
Author: Affirming the Apostles' Creed
Author: James Innell PackerPublisher: Crossway
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 162
Book Description
The Apostles' Creed is the oldest, most beautiful succinct summary of Christian beliefs. Though often recited in unison during worship services, the creed begins with the phrase "I believe," making it a deeply personal profession of faith. But when was the last time you examined it closely? In Affirming the Apostles' Creed, an excerpt from Growing in Christ, noted Bible scholar and author J. I. Packer explains the meaning and implications of each phrase of this great creed. Each concise chapter serves as an invitation to dive further into the creed-and as a result, into the essentials of the Christian faith-by concluding with discussion questions and Bible passages for further study.
John Williamson Nevin
Author: Linden J. DeBiePublisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1725269554
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 169
Book Description
John Williamson Nevin’s life has never been given the full attention that it deserves. That may be due in part to the controversial nature of his thinking. Yet in many respects, his enormous contribution to American religious history is acknowledged by those who have read him. He stood out as the great advocate of evangelical catholicism, and his call for a thorough examination of the place of the church in nineteenth-century theology was revolutionary. It was Nevin who first saw the threat to the church in the erosion of faith in the church as a divine institution sacramentally entrusted by God with the reclamation of the whole world—an erosion that occurred well before the Civil War in the hypersubjectivity of Protestant America.
