| Title | The faithful and the rulers: Calvin's two sermons of 1554 on 1 Timothy 2:1-2 | |
| Creator | Pont, A. D. | |
| Description | In this study Calvin's two sermons on 1 Timothy 2:1-2 are examined and the contents briely analyzed. The conclusion is drawn that Calvin is not giving a treatise on the biblical doctrine on princes and rulers, but is addressing the faithful. In doing so, he explains to the congregation their position vis-à-vis the rulers and what Paul's injunctions mean intheir situation. It is true preaching as Calvin only expounds the Biblical message as it is found in this text. | |
