Produktbeschreibung
John Calvin was one of the most influential Christians of the 2nd millennium. A key figure in the Protestant Reformation, Calvin's legacy remains immensely strong. A major issue of the refromation, and one of the major themes of this book, was Roman Catholicism's view of communion. Calvin and the Reformers believed the Catholic Mass was founded on a grave error that needed to be corrected. Rome's doctrine of transubstantiation was that the bread and wine supernaturally became Christ's body and blood. Calvin held that they were symbolic and to say otherwise diminished Christ's once for all sacrifice on the cross. This key difference remains to this day and Calvin's writings are a starting point from which Reformed Theologians defend and develop the Protestant stance. This unedited collection allows you to read John Calvin's own ideas on the issue.
