4.0 out of 5 stars
Pithy and Precise,
By Kenneth B Pagano (Louisville, KY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Calvin & the Calvinists (Hardcover)
Calvin was a Calvinist as Paul Helm shows by his response to R. T. Kendall's work, "Calvin and English Calvinism to 1649". The only drawback I see with this fine little volume is that one would first need to be familiar with Kendall's work. Otherwise the reader would be lost. I first purchased Helm's book thinking it was a primer on Calvinism. While it may well serve this purpose, I discovered the need to obtain Kendall's book(no simple task) and then read Helm's response. Helm adroitly disabuses Kendall's notion that Calvin believed in a universal atonement, demonstrating that the English Calvinists were indeed his heirs and not merely those of Theodore Beza. While the discussion may be a bit out-of-date, it is not uncommon to find many with a propensity for the doctrines of grace who reject the concept of limited atonement. Hence Helm's book is still a valuble resource.
