Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from History of the Reformation in Europe, Vol. 1: In the Time of Calvin
The times of Luther Were followed by those of Calvin. He, like his great predecessor, undertook to search the Scriptures, and in them he found the same truth and the same life; but. A different character distinguishes his work.
The renovation of the individual, of the Church, and of the human race, is his theme. If the' Holy Ghost kindles the lamp of truth in man, it is (according to Calvin) 'to the end that the entire man should be transformed.' In the kingdom of Christ, ' he says, 'it is only the new man that ?ourishes and has any vigour, and whom we ought to take into account.'
