The Reformed Faith of John Calvin: The Institutes in Summary

In a succinct, systematic way, this book sets forth the essence of the great reformer’s teachings in his Institutes on all the truths of the Christian religion.

The book is more than a summary. It also gives a brief explanation of certain of Calvin’s teachings, offers analysis of Calvin’s doctrine, applies the reformer’s teachings to contemporary doctrinal issues, and even, rarely, becomes so bold as to criticize Calvin’s doctrine, for instance, Calvin’s teaching that the magistrate is called to enforce the first table of the law of God.

"This book is a must-read for any lover of John Calvin, Reformed theology and God's Word itself."—Manuel Kuhs
