This is a beautiful volume of sermons Calvin preached on the texts of the Magnificat, the song of Zechariah, and the song of Simeon. It serves as a nice abstract of Calvinistic pastoral themes, such as the importance of faith in God's covenant promises and the consolation which every believer ought to find in Christ. It's good for devotional reading, and it also contains some choice historical nuggets for anyone interested in the polemical context in which Calvin was preaching (some very interesting material on Mary, for instance).

The accounts of Matthew and Luke both unambiguously affirm that Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary, through the direct action of the Holy Spirit and without the intervention of a human father. No library descriptions found. |
