Title: The Best Place to Learn About Reformed Christian Theology
Review: I have been reading through this edition of the Institutes for a little over seven months with the goal to finish it within a year. I have finished the first volume and have started the second. I am learning so much from Calvin's writings which teach me why I believe what I believe. I am much better informed when defending orthodox Christianity than I ever have been before. You can follow my progress at [...].This is a very easy to read translation unlike several others I have looked at before. The index is great for looking up doctrine based on key words or Scripture passages.If you are looking to purchase a copy of the Institutes, this is the one that I would recommend. It seems to be the one that most seminaries are currently using as well. There is a book calledAnalysis of the Institutes of the Christian Religion of John Calvinthat is a perfect companion to this edition of the Institutes.
