Publisher's Synopsis
Anti-Calvinism (1881) by August Pfeiffer is a book that presents a critical analysis of the teachings of John Calvin, the influential 16th-century Protestant theologian. Pfeiffer argues that Calvin's views on predestination, the sovereignty of God, and the nature of sin and salvation are misguided and incompatible with the true teachings of Christianity. He also takes issue with Calvin's emphasis on strict adherence to a particular set of doctrines and his harsh treatment of those who disagreed with him. Pfeiffer offers a more nuanced and compassionate interpretation of Christian theology, emphasizing the importance of individual conscience and the need for humility and compassion in religious discourse. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christian theology and the ongoing debates surrounding the interpretation of scripture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
