Anti-Calvinism (1881)

By August Pfeiffer

Book Overview

Anti-Calvinism is a book written by August Pfeiffer in 1881 that criticizes the teachings and beliefs of John Calvin, a prominent figure in the Protestant Reformation. Pfeiffer argues that Calvinism is a flawed and dangerous ideology that promotes a deterministic view of the world, denies free will, and leads to an oppressive and authoritarian society. He also takes issue with Calvin's doctrine of predestination, which holds that God has already determined who will be saved and who will be damned, regardless of their actions or beliefs. Pfeiffer contends that this doctrine is not only morally repugnant but also contradicts the teachings of the Bible. In addition to his theological critique, Pfeiffer also provides historical context for Calvinism and its influence on European politics and society. Overall, Anti-Calvinism is a passionate and well-researched critique of one of the most influential religious movements in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
