{"product_id":"the-works-of-stephen-charnock-truth-and-life-vol-5","title":"The Works of Stephen Charnock: Truth and Life-Vol.5","description":"\u003cp\u003eDutch Calvinist theologian Herman Bavinck, a significant voice in the development of Protestant theology, remains relevant many years after his death. His four-volume Reformed Dogmatics is one of the most important theological works of the twentieth century. James Eglinton is widely considered to be at the forefront of contemporary interest in Bavinck's life and thought. After spending considerable time in the Netherlands researching Bavinck, Eglinton brings to light a wealth of new insights and previously unpublished documents to offer a definitive biography of this renowned Reformed thinker. The book follows the course of Bavinck's life in a period of dramatic social change, identifying him as an orthodox Calvinist challenged with finding his feet in late modern culture. Based on extensive archival research, this critical biography presents numerous significant and previously ignored or unknown aspects of Bavinck's person and life story. A black-and-white photo insert is included. This volume complements other Baker Academic offerings on Bavinck's theology and ethics, which together have sold 90,000 copies.\u003cbr\u003e\n\\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\\nVOLUME FIVE contains a further nineteen discourses. By way of contrast with the earlier volumes – most of which are based on texts from the New Testament – five of the discourses here draw on texts from the Old Testament Scriptures. Many of the topics addressed are of perennial interest to all Christians: the necessity of Christ’s death, and the necessity of his exaltation; Christ’s intercession; God in Christ as the object of faith; afflictions; mortification; the stability of the church; delight in prayer; the sins of the regenerate; man’s enmity to God; and the pardon of sin. The set closes with a useful Index of subjects and persons mentioned, and an Index of Texts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mound Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55010698822012,"sku":"9780851517247","price":27.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0297\/3866\/3995\/files\/417np2cgBzL._SX315_BO1204203200.jpg?v=1741628076","url":"https:\/\/www.evangelicalbooks.com\/products\/the-works-of-stephen-charnock-truth-and-life-vol-5","provider":"Evangelical Book Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
