Brief Declaration and Vindication of The Doctrine of the Trinity - Enhanced Version Kindle Edition

5.0 out of 5 stars 6 ratings

In this focused and enlightening treatise, John Owen defends the truth and coherency of the doctrine of the Trinity. Owen responds most explicitly to the heresy of "Socinianism." Socinianism holds that Christ did not pre-exist before being a man. Working with both Scripture and tradition, Owen vigorously argues for a traditional account of the Trinity. Owen doesn't just defend this doctrine, however; he also calls for faith in it as well. To indicate the importance of the Trinity, Owen ends his treatise with an explanation of the satisfaction of Christ. For without the Trinity, Owen argues, there can be no doctrine of satisfaction of sins through Christ. Unlike some of Owen's other work, Brief Declaration and Vindication of the Doctrine of the Trinity is highly focused, lacking long treatments of secondary points. This tightly argued work will remind readers of the importance and power of the doctrine of the Trinity.

John Owen (1616–1683) was vice chancellor of Oxford University and served as advisor and chaplain to Oliver Cromwell. Among the most learned and active of the Puritans in seventeenth-century Europe, and known as the "theologian's theologian," he was accomplished both in doctrine and practical theology.

  • Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2024
    As always, Owen explains in detail the orthodox Christian beliefs based on Biblical scholarship and great understanding. Since the heterodox positions are based on inconsistency of logic and rationalisation of (their) unwanted Biblical passages which are proof texts for Orthodox doctrines of the Trinity, Owen takes and refutes them Biblically and with logic. As a book, it is a summary of these doctrines and an education in what underlies the arguments of those that oppose them. Very helpful on both counts. This rendition of the book in Kindle was very well done.
