Description:This new edition reintroduces John Calvin's neglected work on the doctrine of divine providence. Includes an introduction and notes by prominent British theologian Paul Helm. In 1558 John Calvin held a prominent position of leadership in the Reform movement. He had written prolifically and his works had been widely circulatedand critiqued. It was at this time that he penned an answer to a critique of his position on divine providence, as articulated in the 1546 edition of theInstitutes. His polemical defense of his beliefs, The Secret Providence of God, reflects the boisterous,argumentative tone of the Reformation era and is Calvin's fullest treatment on this most important doctrine. Unfortunately, in recent decades this work has been largely forgotten.With this new English translation of Calvin's work, editor Paul Helm reintroduces The Secret Providence of God to students, pastors, and lay readers of Reformed theology.
