Christ The End Of The Law: Being The Preface To The Geneva Bible Of 1550 (1850) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781169652798)

""Christ The End Of The Law"" is a preface written by John Calvin for the Geneva Bible of 1550. In this book, Calvin discusses the role of Christ in fulfilling the law of Moses and how this understanding should shape the interpretation of scripture. He argues that the law was given to reveal the righteousness of God and to convict people of their sinfulness, but that it was ultimately fulfilled by Christ's death and resurrection. Calvin also emphasizes the importance of faith in Christ as the means of salvation and the necessity of living a holy life in response to God's grace. This book is a significant contribution to the development of Protestant theology and remains a relevant and influential work today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
