<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>John Calvin, a beacon for the Puritans, is spotlighted in this volume of Puritan Papers, originally presented on the 400th anniversary of the Reformer's death. J. I. Packer writes on Calvin as "a servant of the Word," and O. R. Johnston on Calvin the man. Additional chapters treat Calvin's doctrine of God, his Institutes, and sixteenth-century Geneva.</p><p>Other biographical chapters feature George Whitefield (by D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones) and Charles Haddon Spurgeon (by D. M. Whyte). In addition, Packer writes on the Puritan approach to worship, Iain Murray on "things indifferent," and Lloyd-Jones on John Owen's view of schism.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Furnishes Christians today with insight into the rich heritage of Puritan thought. In the shallowness, pragmatism, and confusion of much current evangelicalism, the depth, conviction, and steadiness of the Puritans can again help renew the churches.<br><br>The twenty-three papers gathered together in this book are of value not only to students of history and theology but to all pastors and members of churches... We eagerly look forward to the publication of more past conference papers in this format.<br>
