"It is well and good for the preacher to base his sermon on the Bible, but he better get to something relevant pretty quickly, or we start mentally to check out." That stunningly clear sentence reflects one of the most amazing, tragic, and lamentable characteristics of contemporary Christianity -- an impatience with the Word of God. The sentence above comes from Mark Galli, senior managing editor of ...
Lesson #19 – Sin and Misery (Part 3) Shorter Catechism Q & A # 19 Q. What is the misery of that estate whereinto man fell? A. All mankind by their fall lost communion with God, are under his wrath and curse, and so made liable to all miseries in this life, to death itself, and to the pains of hell for ever.

. Concluding the classical educational philosophy book, Doctrines of the Great Educators, Robert Rusk in the final chapter, The Twentieth Century, closes with the statement: “As Sir Fred Clarke put it, all educational philosophies fall into two groups, according to whether the philosopher does or does not believe in Original Sin. The educational debate is still between the disciples of Rousseau and those of Plato.” Professor Sir Frederick Clarke (1880–1952), Director of the Institute of Education in the University of London between 1936 and 1945, was an influential educator throughout his life in England and in the ...

As the sub-title indicates, The Reformed Faith of John Calvin is a summary (not an abridgment) in one volume of John Calvin’s Institutes of the Christian Religion. In a succinct, systematic way, the book sets forth the essence of the great Reformer’s teachings in his Institutes on all the truths of the Christian Religion. Throughout, this sum of Calvin’s explanation and defense of the truths of the Christian faith is either expressed, or supported, by quotations of Calvin. The book is full of quotations from the Institutes (in the judgment of the author, the most important and vivid statements of Calvin),so that the reader hears Calvin himself. One who reads this book will know the Institutes and its comprehensive, powerful instruction in the Reformed faith—the faith of the sixteenth century Reformation of the church. The book is more than a summary. It also gives brief explanation of certain of Calvin’s teachings,offers analysis of Calvin’s doctrine, applies the Reformer’s teachings to contemporary doctrinal issues, and even, rarely, becomes so bold as to criticize Calvin’s doctrine. At every point, the book provides exact reference to the Institutes in the accepted scholarly fashion, so that the reader can readily compare the summary with Calvin’s own presentation, or, being stimulated, read further concerning a particular doctrine in Calvin’s great work. Many seminarians, pastors, elders, and laity, perhaps, even a theologian or two, although desirous of learning the content of the Institutes, are put off from reading it by the sheer size of the massive, two-volume work, or are hindered by the demands of their calling. This summary will supply their want and, it is hoped, motivate them to read the Institutes itself. David J. Engelsma is emeritus Professor of Dogmatics and Old Testament Studies at the Protestant Reformed Theological Seminary in Grandville, Michigan.
