Calvinistic Controversy: Embracing A Sermon On Predestination And Election And Several Numbers, Formally Published In The Christian Advocate And Journ

By Wilbur Fisk

A provocative, reverent meditation on fate, faith, and the human conscience, Calvinistic Controversy invites readers into a pivotal antebellum dialogue on predestination and election. A 1-2 line hook: a spiritual inquiry that tests the boundaries of belief, while inviting pastors, students, and curious readers to wrestle with a defining doctrine. This book offers a clear, accessible survey of a religious treatise and sermon collection that stands at the heart of theological controversy. Its form blends rigorous argument with vivid pastoral insight, revealing how scriptural determinism shaped both pulpit practice and lay reading in early America. The themes speak to today's audiences as much as to historical scholars, balancing doctrinal precision with humanised case studies that illuminate the life of the church and the conscience. Calvinistic Controversy carries substantial literary and historical significance, tracing ideas that informed the United States religious press and shaped American religious culture. It remains essential for anyone studying antebellum America, or exploring the evolution of Calvinist predestination and election theology within a broad evangelical milieu. The prose rewards careful reading, while the historical context enriches collectors as much as casual readers. Selling points: Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions; Restored for today's and future generations; More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. A welcome addition for classical-literature enthusiasts and scholars alike.
