O knihe
John Calvin¿s understanding of the extent of the atonement achieved in Christ¿s death is one of the most contested questions in historical theology. In common thought, Calvin¿s name is closely associated with the ¿limited atonement¿ stance canonized within the ¿TULIP¿ acronym, but Calvin¿s personal endorsement of a strictly particularist view, whereby Christ died for the elect alone, is debateable. In Calvin on the Death of Christ, Paul Hartog re-examines Calvin¿s writing on the subject, traces the various resulting historical trajectories, and engages with the full spectrum of more recent scholarship. In so doing, he makes clear that, while Calvin undoubtedly believed in unconditional election, he also repeatedly spoke of Christ dying for ¿all¿ or for ¿the world¿. These phrases must be held central if we are to discover Calvin¿s own view of the subject. Hartog¿s conclusions will surprise some, and may hold significant implications for the Calvinist tradition today. Throughout, however, they are cogently articulated and sensitively pitched.
