The Belgic Confession: Its History and Sources

  • Author: Nicolaas H. Gootjes
  • Series: Texts and Studies in Reformation and Post-Reformation Thought
  • Publisher: Baker Academic
  • Publication Date: 2007
  • Pages: 240

Sample Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7

Learn the story of the historic Belgic Confession—one of the oldest and most important doctrinal statements of Reformed churches. Written in 1561, it became the doctrinal standard of Protestants in the Netherlands, despite persecution from the Roman Catholic government. This book, the first comprehensive study of the Begic Confession, examines the document’s early history, authorship, sources, revisions, authority, and its relationship to John Calvin and Theodore Beza.

The Belgic Confession of 1561 was the most significant confessional document to emerge from the Reformation in the Netherlands in the sixteenth century. How surprising, therefore, that this volume is the first full-length introduction to the origin and history of the confession to appear in English! The author has provided us with a careful and comprehensive treatment of [its] historical development. It is a book we have been awaiting for a long time."

—Lyle D. Bierma, Jean and Kenneth Baker Professor of Systematic Theology, Calvin Theological Seminary

Nicolaas H. Gootjes is professor of dogmatology at the Theological College of the Canadian Reformed Churches in Hamilton, Ontario.

The Binding of God: Calvin’s Role in the Development of Covenant Theology

  • Author: Peter A. Lillback
  • Series: Texts and Studies in Reformation and Post-Reformation Thought
  • Publisher: Baker Academic
  • Publication Date: 2001
  • Pages: 332

Sample Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7

Explore John Calvin’s relationship to covenantal thought, and trace the historical development of “covenant” as a rubric for theology. Peter Lillback carefully examines Calvin’s writings, seeking to unveil the role of covenant theology in the great Reformer’s thought. Lillback’s work contributes to not only our understanding of Reformation thought, but helps to clarify how Calvin contributes to contemporary theological debates.

Lillback’s book serves well as the starting point in a vital conversation with Calvin to improve research on the theology of the Reformation.

—Paul Chung, Religious Studies Review

Peter A. Lillback is president and adjunct professor of historical theology at Westminster Theological Seminary and professor of church history at Reformed Episcopal Seminary, both located in Philadelphia.

  • Editor: Anthony N.S. Lane
  • Translator: G.I. Davies
  • Series: Texts and Studies in Reformation and Post-Reformation Thought
  • Publisher: Baker Academic
  • Publication Date: 1996
  • Pages: 304

Sample Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7

Dive into the complex subject of human freedom and divine sovereignty with one of history’s greatest theologians: John Calvin. Available for the first time in English, this text reveals Calvin’s engagement with the church fathers—especially Augustine—on the relationship of human will to divine grace. This edition also contains Calvin’s rejoinder to Pighius, who claimed preaching was unnecessary if salvation comes by grace alone. Edited by renowned Calvin scholar Anthony N.S. Lane, this volume contains material not found elsewhere in Calvin’s writings, providing a fuller exposition of his thinking on a controversial topic.

Lane and Davies have provided students of Calvin with an exceedingly useful tool for studying the Reformer’s views on the human will and his polemical and theological methodology.

—Raymond A. Blacketer, Calvin Theological Journal

This first English translation of an important work of John Calvin is a welcome supplement to his teachings in his Institutes.

—E. Earle Ellis, Southwestern Journal of Theology

John Calvin (1509–1564) is one of the most influential figures in world history. A French theologian, Calvin was educated at the Sorborne, University of Paris, and ministered in the Protestant cities of Geneva and Strasbourg. Though the details of his conversion to Protestantism remain enigmatic, he became the most recognizable figure of the Reformation’s second generation, leading the spread of Reformed Protestantism across Europe. His works include Institutes of the Christian Religion and commentaries on nearly every book of the Bible.

Calvin’s Theology of the Psalms

  • Author: Herman J. Selderhuis
  • Series: Texts and Studies in Reformation and Post-Reformation Thought
  • Publisher: Baker Academic
  • Publication Date: 2007
  • Pages: 304

Sample Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7

Discover what distinguished Calvin scholar Herman Selderhuis believes lies at the heart of Calvin’s theology—that God is at the center of all things. Calvin’s Theology of the Psalms demonstrates how this rubric governs Calvin’s commentary on the Psalms, drawing parallels to Calvin’s own biography. Selderhuis argues that Calvin’s work is fundamentally oriented to the first person of the trinity and that Calvin uses the Psalms to speak of God’s attributes.

Selderhuis manifests the breadth of grasp and dexterity with detail in Calvin’s Theology of the Psalms that have made him an internationally recognized authority on both Calvin and the Reformation.

—John C. Clark, Calvin Theological Journal

Herman Selderhuis is professor of church history and church polity at the Theologische Universiteit Apeldoorn in the Netherlands. He is director of the Institute for Reformation Research, Apeldoorn, and general secretary of the International Calvin Congress.

Divine Discourse: The Theological Methodology of John Owen

  • Author: Sebastian Rehnman
  • Series: Texts and Studies in Reformation and Post-Reformation Thought
  • Publisher: Baker Academic
  • Publication Date: 2002
  • Pages: 224

Sample Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7

Analyze the fundamental aspects of John Owen’s theology by exploring the principles and premises undergirding his work. Sebastian Rehnman shows Owen’s direct continuity with Reformation theologians, late medieval thinkers, and patristic theologians. The theology of Owen, says Rehnman, must be understood within the context of a largely unbroken line of the Christian tradition stretching across all of church history.

This is a careful study of John Owen’s theological method through his prolegomenous discourse. Divine Discourse is a valuable study that will enhance our understanding and appreciation of Owen.

—Anthony N.S. Lane, professor of historical theology at the London School of Theology

This study of English Puritan theologian John Owen demonstrates that Owen was a highly sophisticated theologian who drew deeply on patristic, medieval, and Renaissance sources to articulate a theology that is both catholic and distinctively Reformed.

—Carl Trueman, professor of historical theology and church history, Westminster Theological Seminary

This sure-footed guide over the rough terrain of seventeenth-century Reformed prolegomena confirms [Richard] Muller’s thesis that predestination was not the organizing principle of Reformed scholasticism. Rather, Owen’s prolegomena is orthodox and scholastic as well as christocentric, pneumatological, and practical. This clear-headed balanced book will be of immense value.

—Joel R. Beeke, president and professor of systematic theology and homiletics, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary

Rehnman’s study of Puritan John Owen’s theological prolegomena is an important contribution to contemporary work in this area that provides a sound historical analysis of the theological, philosophical, and pedagogical roots of English Puritanism and Reformed Scholasticism.

—Willem J. van Asselt, associate professor in the history of Reformed theology, Utrecht University

Sebastian Rehnman is a professor of history at the University of Stavanger, Norway.

Heinrich Bullinger and the Doctrine of Predestination: Author of “the Other Reformed Tradition”

  • Author: Cornelis P. Venema
  • Series: Texts and Studies in Reformation and Post-Reformation Thought
  • Publisher: Baker Academic
  • Publication Date: 2002
  • Pages: 144

Sample Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7

Discover Heinrich Bullinger—an over-looked but immensely important Reformation era theologian. Cornelis Venema retrieves Bullinger’s thought from the shadow of Luther, Calvin, and Zwingli, arguing for continuity between Bullinger and the later Reformed tradition. Sharpen your understanding of the Reformed heritage, and pay tribute to Bullinger as a central figure in its development.

Bullinger’s thought has never been subjected to the intensive study lavished on Calvin’s thought. Cornelis Venema takes an important step in filling this gap with this admirably precise and nuanced study of Bullinger’s doctrine of predestination.

—Robert M. Kingdom, professor of history, University of Wisconsin

Cornelis Venema’s study provides a lucid, balanced, and reliable account of Bullinger’s teaching on predestination. He clears away many misunderstandings and misrepresentations to allow Bullinger’s voice to be heard clearly.

—W. Robert Godfrey, professor of church history, Westminster Theological Seminary

This is the most careful and complete study of Bullinger’s doctrine of predestination in English. His finely nuanced arguments and ample support from the sources will make it difficult to contend any longer that Bullinger’s views of predestination and covenant diverged substantially from John Calvin’s

—Lyle D. Bierma, Jean and Kenneth Baker Professor of Systematic Theology, Calvin Theological Seminary

Venema’s work presents a significant challenge to those who find in Bullinger the source of a competing Reformed tradition distinct from Calvin and Reformed orthodoxy.

—R. Scott Clark, professor of church history and historical theology, Westminster Theological Seminary

Cornelius P. Venema is president and professor of doctrinal studies at Mid-America Reformed Seminary. He has coauthored several books including But for the grace of God, The Promise of the Future, and What We Believe.

Law & Gospel: Philip Melancthon’s Debate with John Agricola of Eisleben over Poenitentia

  • Author: Timothy Wengert
  • Series: Texts and Studies in Reformation and Post-Reformation Thought
  • Publisher: Baker Academic
  • Publication Date: 1998
  • Pages: 400

Sample Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7

Explore the relationship between poenitenia and law in Melancthon’s theology during his spat with another one of Luther’s disciples—John Agricola of Eisleben. “Questions over the nature of poenitentia and its relation to the law and to the sacrament of penance,” writes Timothy Wengert, “formed the basis of the first public controversy among Luther’s students and profoundly shaped later Lutheranism by making the distinction between law and gospel one of its distinguishing characteristics.”

This contribution to the history of exegesis and to the study of Luther’s catechisms in their historical setting will add much to our understanding of the Reformation and will promote the discussion of historical and contemporary, practical issues of interest to historians, theologians, pastors, and laity.

—Robert Kolb, professor emeritus of systematic theology, Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, Missouri

Timothy J. Wengert is Ministerium of Pennsylvania Professor, Reformation History, at The Lutheran Theological Seminary, Philadelphia. He has pastored churches in Minnesota and Wisconsin.

Martin Luther’s Understanding of God’s Two Kingdoms: A Response to the Challenge of Skepticism

  • Author: William J. Wright
  • Series: Texts and Studies in Reformation and Post-Reformation Thought
  • Publisher: Baker Academic
  • Publication Date: 2010
  • Pages: 208

Sample Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7

Reconsider Luther’s concept of the “two kingdoms” not as a polarization of secular culture and religious life, but as an acknowledgement of God’s lordship over all creation—including the private and public life of the believer. William J. Wright shows that Luther’s two-kingdom construction was not a justification for living irresponsibly or carelessly—but to live all areas of life in light of Jesus Christ.

This book offers a new proposal for the origin of Luther’s two kingdoms idea and a strong correction of recent scholarly interpretations of the idea.

—David VanDrunen, Church History

Professor Wright has offered us a learned and revolutionary new assessment of Luther’s understanding of the two kingdoms.

—David M. Whitford, professor of the history of Christianity, United Theological Seminary

By placing Luther’s concept against the background of his confrontation with skepticism, Wright produces a new vantage point for assessing Luther’s framework for guiding human action in this world.

—Robert Kolb, professor of systematic theology, Concordia Seminary, St. Louis

William J. Wright is professor of history and head of the history department at the University of Tennessee, Chattanooga. He is the author of Capitalism, the State, and the Lutheran Reformation.

  • Publisher: Baker Academic
  • Publication Date: 2010

Sample Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7

Discover the philosophical sophistication of the older Reformed position on divine sovereignty and human will. The texts in this book highlight the positive aspects of the Reformed tradition, and contributors demonstrate that traditional Calvinism cannot be easily dismissed as a form of philosophical determinism. Reformed Thought on Freedom will be valued by Reformation scholars, professors and students, and research and theological libraries.

An excellent contribution to the current remapping of the relationship of early modern Protestantism to late medieval theology.

—Carl R. Trueman, professor of historical theology and church history, Westminster Theological Seminary

Reformed Thought on Freedom is a model of patient, lucid scholarship. One can only hope that it has its desired effect on both historical scholarship of the period and the present debate concerning free choice.

—Brent Adkins, Sixteenth Century Journal

This book makes an important contribution to historical and systematic theology by taking an issue that is still hotly debated and presenting the views of thinkers who, though nearly forgotten now, were most influential within the continental Reformed tradition.

Martin Luther as Prophet, Teacher, and Hero: Images of the Reformer, 1520–1620

  • Author: Robert Kolb
  • Edition: 2nd
  • Series: Texts and Studies in Reformation and Post-Reformation Thought
  • Publisher: Baker Academic
  • Publication Date: 1999
  • Pages: 288

Sample Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7

Despite the vast number of studies concerning the life and teaching of Martin Luther, scholars have not previously considered the ways in which his contemporaries and successors used his influence in the German Reformation. Professor Robert Kolb treats the subject in this well-researched volume on the continuing role of Luther’s legacy. The following generations of Reformers, he argues, used Luther in different ways as they sought to deal with the changed circumstances of the church in their own age.

Kolb suggests three categories to describe the ways in which Luther’s disciples used his influence and adapted it to the needs of the church in their respective ages: prophet, teacher, and hero.

Robert Kolb’s study of changing interpretations of Luther’s life and work is a valuable contribution to Luther studies. In particular, it demonstrates the impact of Luther on German theological thinking since the sixteenth century.

—John Johnson, president, Concordia Seminary

Professor Kolb has woven a fascinating tale about the effect of Luther on his theological heirs. This is a landmark study with which everyone interested in Luther studies will need to grapple.

—Timothy J. Wengert, Ministerium of Pennsylvania Professor of the Reformation History, Lutheran Theological Seminary, Philadelphia

Kolb’s study, written in his typically clear style and based on thorough research, is a valuable contribution to our understanding of the development of Lutheranism.

—Sixteenth Century Journal

For anyone interested in ‘how Luther after his death continued to function as an authority, as a teacher, and as a hero for those who claimed his name’ and how Luther’s heirs conceived ‘the nature of authority within the church . . . in the midst of a changing society,’ Kolb’s study is both unique and indispensable.

—Lutheran Quarterly

Kolb is a seasoned Reformation scholar and a leading expert on Lutheran developments in the century after Luther. His wide readings and careful research are reflected in this book, which does a real service in elucidating a complex but important period.

—Religious Studies Review

Robert Kolb is emeritus professor of systematic theology and director of the Institute for Mission Studies at Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, Missouri. He is the author of Luther and the Stories of God, The Christian Faith: A Lutheran Exposition, and coauthor of The Genius of Luther’s Theology.

  • Series: Texts and Studies in Reformation and Post-Reformation Thought
  • Publisher: Baker
  • Publication Date: 1995
  • Pages: 174

This commentary on the Heidelberg Catechism offers insight into one of the Protestantism’s most important catechisms. In this edition, Olevianus comments on the Lord’s Days 5 through 24. This study—aimed at pastors, students, and laypeople—is edited by one of the most competent scholars on this subject.

The translation is competent both in its rendering of the German text and its fluidity in English. Bierma has provided an excellent translation of a significant work by one of the key figures of the ‘second Reformation.’

—The Sixteenth Century Journal

Casper Olevianus (1536–1587) was one of the founders of the German Reformed church. He is the coauthor of the Heidelberg Catechism, and a commentary on the epistle to the Galatians.

Sample Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7

Examine key aspects of the development of the Heidelberg Catechism, including historical background, socio-political origins, purpose, authorship, sources, and theology. The book includes the first ever English translations of two major sources of the Heidelberg Catechism—Ursinus’ Smaller and Larger Catechisms—and a bibliography of research on the document since 1900.

An Introduction to the Heidelberg Catechism is a valuable addition to studies on the magisterial catechism ratified at Heidelberg.

—Joel R. Beeke, president and professor of systematic theology and homiletics, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary

The various authors make distinctive contributions toward understanding the background and theology of the catechism with the centerpiece being the translations of Ursinus’ two catechisms, which provide fascinating parallels to the Heidelberg Catechism itself.

—I. John Hesselink, Albertus Van Raalte Professor of Theology, emeritus, Western Theological Seminary

This book will leave those unfamiliar with the Heidelberg Catechism wondering how they could have missed a theological gem of such brilliance. Rarely does a book about a classic text do justice to the original.

—Darryl Hart, director of fellowship programs and scholar-in-residence, Intercollegiate Studies Institute

These pages are a treasure store of information on one of the truly great documents of the Reformed church.

—Sinclair B. Ferguson, professor of systematic theology, Westminster Theological Seminary

The book provides an indispensable research tool for the study of a document which not only has considerable historical significance, but continues to have importance in Reformed Churches with a German or Dutch origin.
