Belgic Confession, The: Its History and Sources (Texts and Studies in Reformation and Post-Reformation Thought)

Despite its importance, there has been no comprehensive study on the history and background of this confession in English, until now. This newest volume in the Texts and Studies in Reformation and Post-Reformation Thought series examines the confession's early history, author, revisions, authority, and its relationship to Calvin and Beza. It is a valuable contribution to the field of Reformation studies..

Sweet Communion: Trajectories of Spirituality from the Middle Ages through the Further Reformation (Texts and Studies in Reformation and Post-Reformation Thought)
Sweet Communion introduces scholars and interested Reformed readers to the spirituality practiced during the Further Reformation, a seventeenth-century movement that strove for a contemporary application of the sixteenth-century Reformation. The book is organized around leading figures of the era, including Willem Teellinck, Theodorus à Brakel, Guiljelmus Saldenus, Wilhelmus à Brakel, and Herman Witsius. Sweet Communion examines the quality, form, and roots of this period's spirituality. De Reuver determines that each of the Further Reformation authors promotes a spirituality in which the heart experiences communion with God by the Word and Spirit. In examining the roots of this spirituality, de Reuver reaches back to the Middle Ages and the spirituality of Thomas à Kempis and Bernard of Clairvaux..

Lancelot Andrewes: A Perennial Preacher of the Post-Reformation English Church
"...Men may talk what they will, but sure there is no joy in the world to the joy of a man saved; no joy so great, no news so welcome, as to one ready to perish, in case of a lost man, to hear of one that will save him. In danger of perishing by sickness, to hear of one will make him well again; by sentence of the law, of one with a pardon to save his life; by enemies, of one that will rescue and set him in safety. Tell any of these, assure them but of a Saviour, it is the best news he ever heard in his life." Lancelot Andrewes, Christmas Day sermon, 1609

Lancelot Andrewes' life as a bishop spanned almost the length of the reign of James I. He became a regular preacher at Court for this monarch, as he had been for Elizabeth I. Indeed, James had some of Andrewes' sermons published shortly after hearing them in order to study them closer.

This book contains a cross section of doctrinal and religious themes from Andrewes' sermons for reading and reflection..

Divine Discourse: The Theological Methodology of John Owen (Texts and Studies in Reformation and Post-Reformation Thought)
John Owen was a leading Puritan theologian, an advisor to Oliver Cromwell, and vice-chancellor of the University of Oxford. He was a prolific author, and his theological writings on the atonement and the work of the Holy Spirit still influence the English-speaking Calvinist world today.

Sebastian Rehnman here provides a detailed analysis of the fundamentals of Owen¹s theology by exploring his underlying principles and premises. Rehnman shows that Owen was in direct continuity with other Renaissance scholars, late medieval thinkers, the Reformation, and post-Reformation theologians. The theology of Owen, says Rehnman, must be understood within the context of a largely unbroken line of the Christian tradition..
