Product Description
This set, originally an 8 volume work, is reprinted in these 4 volumes. The renovation of the individual, of the church, and of the human race, is the theme. If the Holy Ghost kindles the lamp of truth in man, it is (according to Calvin) to the end that the entire man should be transformed. In the Kingdom of Christ, he says, it is only the new man that flourishes and has any vigor, and whom we ought to take into account. This renovation is, at the same time, an enfranchisement; and we might assign, as a motto to the reformation accomplished by Calvin, as well as to apostolical Chiristianity itself, these words of Jesus Christ: The truth shall make you free. (John 8:32)
