  Sermons From Job

  $25.00

  Leroy Nixon, the translator of these sermons wrote, “Of all the sermons by Calvin, the 159 on the book of Job have probably been the most famous. They express clearly his sense of the majesty of God. To work with them over the past three years has been a rich and exciting spiritual experience. . . If the reader gets only a fraction of the benefit which came to the translator, the reader will be amply rewarded. Calvin’s piety is well expressed in the sermons titled, ‘The Lord Gave; the Lord has taken Away’; ‘Blessed is the Man whom God Corrects’; ‘Though He Slay Me, Yet Will I Trust in Him;’ ‘Does Not God Count My Steps’; ‘ and ‘The Right Use of Affliction.’ Pervading these sermons is the prayer and conviction that whatever comes to pass may all be for the glory of God.”

  Secret Providence Of God

  $17.99

  In 1558 John Calvin held a prominent position of leadership in the Reform movement. He had written prolifically and his works had been widely circulated-and critiqued. It was at this time that he penned an answer to a critique of his position on divine providence, as articulated in the 1546 edition of the Institutes. His polemical defense of his beliefs, The Secret Providence of God, reflects the boisterous, argumentative tone of the Reformation era and is Calvin’s fullest treatment on this most important doctrine. Unfortunately, in recent decades this work has been largely forgotten.

  With this new English translation of Calvin’s work, editor Paul Helm reintroduces The Secret Providence of God to students, pastors, and lay readers of Reformed theology. Translator Keith Goad has modernized the English while preserving a Latinized translation style as far as possible. Helm has provided a full introduction, discussing the work’s background, content, style, and relation to Calvin’s other writings on providence.
