Produktbeschreibung
With clarity and precision, Richard A. Muller sheds light on the hotly debated topic of predestination. Following a broad survey of Reformed thought on predestination in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, he carefully investigates several particular episodes that illustrate the doctrine's complexity and development in different contexts. Along the way he challenges distorted ideas about the placement of predestination in theological systems, naïve readings of Calvin based solely on his Institutes, simplistic representations of supra- and infralapsarian debates as matters merely of a logical ordering of decrees, and uncharitable views of Reformed theologians as entrenched dogmatists unwilling to engage in broader theological exercises.
