Publisher's Synopsis
Calvin And Servetus And The Origin Of The Limited Atonement Doctrine: A Reply To R. R. Atchison (1880) is a book written by Ahaz Nicholas Alcott. The book is a response to R. R. Atchison's argument that John Calvin's doctrine of limited atonement was influenced by his involvement in the execution of Michael Servetus, a Spanish theologian who denied the doctrine of the Trinity. Alcott argues that Atchison's claim is unfounded and that Calvin's doctrine of limited atonement was based on his interpretation of scripture. The book provides a historical analysis of Calvin's theology and the controversy surrounding Servetus' execution, as well as a theological defense of limited atonement. Overall, Calvin And Servetus And The Origin Of The Limited Atonement Doctrine is a scholarly work that delves into the theological and historical context of Calvin's doctrine of limited atonement.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
