Institutes of the Christian Religion

Hendrickson offers a one-volume hardcover edition of one of Western Christianity’s foundational works. Re-typeset into a clean and modern typeface, this edition is easy to read for the modern eye. This book will appeal to libraries, seminarians, pastors, and laypeople. Institutes of the Christian Religion by John Calvin is an introduction to the Bible and a vindication of Reformation principles by one of the Reformation’s finest scholars.

At the age of twenty-six, Calvin published several revisions of his Institutes of the Christian Religion, a seminal work in Christian theology that altered the course of Western history and that is still read by theological students today. It was published in Latin in 1536 and in his native French in 1541, with the definitive editions appearing in 1559 (Latin) and in 1560 (French). The book was written as an introductory textbook on the Protestant faith for those with some learning already and covered a broad range of theological topics from the doctrines of church and sacraments to justification by faith alone. It vigorously attacked the teachings of those Calvin considered unorthodox, particularly Roman Catholicism, to which Calvin says he had been “strongly devoted” before his conversion to Protestantism. The over-arching theme of the book—and Calvin’s greatest theological legacy—is the idea of God’s total sovereignty, particularly in salvation and election.

Day by Day with John Calvin: Selected Readings for Daily Reflection

Start your day with the truths that have shaped lives for centuries. Along with Martin Luther, John Calvin, the great scholar and Christian leader, was one of the central figures in the Protestant Reformation. A year’s worth of daily devotional readings taken from Calvin’s commentaries and from Calvin’s Institutes of the Christian Religion, Of Prayer, and On the Christian Life have been compiled here for inspiration and meditation. Each of the 365 selections includes a Bible passage and a devotional reading on that passage. Be encouraged as Calvin’s profound insight, wisdom, and devotion reveal God’s grace.

Excerpts from Calvin’s commentaries were taken from the work done in the mid 1800s by the Calvin Translation Society. Excerpts from Calvin’s Institutes of the Christian Religion, Of Prayer, and On the Christian Life were taken from the work of Henry Beveridge (1845).

The first English Bible to be fully translated from the original languages, the Geneva Bible was the product of some of the finest biblical scholars of its day. It was the first to feature many innovations in the field of Bible publishing:

• Text printed in readable roman type
• Division of the text into numbered verses
• Italic type used for words not in the original languages
• Marks placed over the accented syllables to aid in pronouncing proper names
• Extensive textual and explanatory commentary placed in the margins
• Words/phrases displayed at the heads of pages to promote scripture memorization
• Maps and woodcuts illustrating biblical scenes included
• Sold in a variety of sizes so many people could afford a household Bible

English settlers that voyaged to the New World favored the Geneva Bible. It is probable that the Geneva Bible came to America in 1607 and was used in the Jamestown colony. Thirteen years later the Pilgrims brought it with them on the Mayflower’s perilous voyage to religious freedom.
