{"product_id":"the-decades-of-henry-bullinger-2-volumes-out-of-print","title":"The Decades of Henry Bullinger, 2 volumes (out of Print)","description":"Henry Bullinger was one of the most widely esteemed leaders of the Reformation Churches. \u003cem\u003eThe Decades\u003c\/em\u003e was the most famous of the 150 treatises and manuscripts that he wrote, deriving its name from being a series of fifty theological addresses divided into five groups of ten. Each address is a helpful, detailed exposition of an important doctrine. Combined, they provide an overview of the Christian faith suitable for the everyday Christian. When first published \u003cem\u003eThe Decades\u003c\/em\u003e outsold Calvin’s \u003cem\u003eInstitutes\u003c\/em\u003e in England, a work that performs a similar function. This edition features introductions to the life of Bullinger and to the work itself by George Ella and Joel R.

He produced 86 works of Reformed theology at a time prior to Calvin’s first edition of the Institutes of the Christian Religion. His overall writing output was larger than Luther, Calvin, and Melancthon combined. This thorough work was the reason he came to be called the Father and Shepherd of the Reformed churches.\r\\n\r\\n\u003cstrong\u003eEndorsements\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\\n\r\\n“This reprint of Bullinger’s \u003cem\u003eThe Decades\u003c\/em\u003e makes available a seminal survey of Christian teaching by one of the most significant of the second-generation Reformers. Both in their content and in their homiletical tone, \u003cem\u003eThe Decades\u003c\/em\u003e offered the mid-sixteenth century a basic text from which Christian readers could learn both the content of the faith and the life of Christian obedience. Their importance is evidenced in the numerous printings both in Latin and in the vernacular that mark out the influence of the\u003cem\u003e Decades\u003c\/em\u003e among English, Dutch, and German-speaking Protestants. May this reprint enhance contemporary recognition of Bullinger’s contribution to the Reformation.” — Richard A. Muller, \u003cem\u003eCalvin Theological Seminary\u003c\/em\u003e\r\\n\r\\n“What is impressive about \u003cem\u003eThe Decades\u003c\/em\u003e is how contemporary Bullinger sounds on so many issues and how readable he still is more than 450 years after he wrote these sermons. Even today, Bullinger surefootedly guides us intellectually, experientially, and practically through the truths of Reformed doctrine that set us free and enable us to grow in grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.” — Joel R.
