Grace and Conformity

The Reformed Conformist Tradition and the Early Stuart Church of England

Beschreibung

The Reformed Conformity that flourished within the Early Stuart English Church was a rich, vibrant and distinctive theological tradition that has never before been studied in its own right. While scholars have observed how Reformed Conformists clashed with Laudians and Puritans alike, no sustained academic study of their teaching on grace and their attitude to the Church has yet been undertaken, despite the centrality of these topics to Early Stuart theological controversy. This ground-breaking monograph recovers this essential strand of Early Stuart Christian identity, examining the teachings and writings of ten prominent theologians
