God The Creator, God The Redeemer:institutes Of The Christian Religion (Pure Gold Classic)

The Story

John Calvin's God the Creator and God the Redeemer are the first and second books of the Institutes of the Christian Religion, one of the most famous theological books ever published, written and repeatedly refined and rewritten by one of the most significant figures of the Protestant Reformation. His system of doctrine and polity, Calvinism, has shaped more minds and entered into more nations that that of any other reformer. In every land, it made men strong against the attempted interference of the secular power with the rights of Christians and endures today, hundreds of years after his death. 'It was more God's work than mine,' Calvin said of his 'Institutes.'
