Institutes of the Christian Religion Audiobook (Free)

Summary:

Institutes of theChristian Religious beliefs is John Calvin’s seminal work on Protestant systematictheology. Highly influential under western culture and still broadly read bytheological students today, it had been published in Latin in 1536 and in his nativeFrench in 1541. The publication serves as an introductory textbook on the Protestantfaith for all those with some previous understanding of theology and addresses a broadrange of theological topics from the doctrines of cathedral and sacraments tojustification by faith alone and Christian liberty. It vigorously episodes teachings which Calvin regarded as unorthodox, particularly Roman Catholicismto which Calvin says he previously been “strongly committed” before his transformation toProtestantism. The overarching theme from the book-and Calvin’s greatesttheological legacy-is the thought of God’s total sovereignty, especially insalvation and election. Institutes of theChristian Religion is normally highly-regarded as a second research for thesystem of doctrine followed from the Reformed churches, which is commonly referredto as Calvinism.
