Jacob Arminius (1559-1609) is one of the few theologians in the history of Christianity who has lent his name to a significant theological movement. The dissemination of his thought throughout Europe, Great Britain, and North America, along with the appeal of his ideas in current Protestantevangelical spheres (whether rightly understood or misunderstood), continue to attract both scholarly and popular attention. Keith Stanglin and Thomas McCall's Jacob Arminius offers a constructive synthesis of the current state of Arminius studies. There is a chasm separating technical, scholarlydiscussions of Arminius and popular-level appeals to his thought.The authors seek to bridge the scholarly and general discussions, providing an account based on interaction with all the primary sources and latest secondary research that will be helpful to the scholar as well as comprehensible and relevant to the undergraduate student. The authors describe keyelements of Arminius' theology with careful attention to its proper context; they also explore the broader theological implications of his views.… (altro)

Excellent overview for a proper understanding Arminius' theology and the reasons why he opposed the Reformed Calvinism of his day.

The chapter contents listed in the book are as follows:

1. The Making of a Theologian, where the authors rehearse Arminius' personal life and the various perspectives others have had concerning his person, work, and influence.

2. God and Creation, whereby Arminius' theology is grounded.

3. Providence and Predestination, wherein the authors start getting into the nitty-gritty (so to speak) of Arminius' theology in opposition to Calvinism. What is very interesting are the authors' 7 pages discussing "Providence and Evil" with respect to the divine permission.

4. Sin and Salvation, where he argues that (unlike Calvinism) God's "only role" sinful behavior is "permitting humanity to exercise free will and power" (p.143).

This is a book is for both non-Calvinist and Calvinists interested in the Calvinist–Arminian controversy, for the purpose of clarifying and correcting one's understanding of Arminian theology. ( )
