1667 John CALVIN Bible Calvinism Astrology Protestant Reformation Servetus FOLIO

“We should ask God to increase our hope when it is small, awaken it when it is dormant, confirm it when it is wavering, strengthen it when it is weak, and raise it up when it is overthrown.”

― John Calvin

John Calvin was a 16^th-century French theologian who was known for his role in the Protestant Reformation. He held firm to his doctrines of predestination which were made evident in his book “Institutes of the Christian Religion”. Along with his sermons and other teachings, Calvin laid the foundation for Calvinism and its spread throughout Europe.

This 16^th-century folio printing of the works of Calvin includes works such as:

• “De Scandalis” – on the scandals within the church and the conduct of the leaders
• “Vera Chrstianae Pacificationis” – Calvin’s vision for achieving true peace within the church through reforms with a focus on Scripture and adhering to the truth
• “Censura seu Caumniarum Antonii Cathalani” – Calvin’s response to the accusations and slanders made by Antonio Cathalano. Defense of his own teachings against Cathalani’s anti-reformation attacks.
• “Admonitio adversus astrologiam” – attack on the practice of astrology claiming it to be superstition
• “Fidelis Expositio errorum Michaelis Serveti” – Calvin’s address of the heresies and errors in the doctrine of Spanish theologian Michael Servetus. This treatise led to Servetus’ trial and ultimate execution in Geneva.
• “De aeterna dei praedestinatione” – one of Calvin’s most important works, focused entirely on the doctrine of predestination. Often considered to be the key to understanding Calvinism.
