Publisher's Synopsis
Calvinism: Six Stone Foundation Lectures by Abraham Kuyper is a book that explores the theological and philosophical principles of Calvinism. The book is based on six lectures that Kuyper delivered in 1898 at the Stone Foundation in Princeton, New Jersey. Kuyper, a Dutch theologian, politician, and journalist, was a prominent figure in the Reformed tradition of Christianity. In this book, he presents Calvinism as a comprehensive worldview that encompasses not only religious beliefs but also social, political, and cultural aspects of life. The six lectures in the book cover various topics related to Calvinism, including its historical development, its key theological doctrines, its impact on society and culture, and its relation to other worldviews such as liberalism and socialism. Kuyper argues that Calvinism provides a unique perspective on the relationship between God and the world, emphasizing God's sovereignty and human responsibility. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both scholars and general readers interested in theology, philosophy, and history. It is a classic work that continues to influence contemporary discussions about Calvinism and its relevance for today's world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
