Description: This is Calvin's own summary of biblical truth, a precis of the first edition of his Institutes. He wrote it in 1536-7 in order to 'define the Christian faith for ordinary people'. This new translation by Stuart Olyott (only one English translation has appeared before) has been made from a French edition of an original copy rediscovered in 1877.

"John Calvin knew that if the biblical truths rediscovered at the Reformation were to spread throughout the world, they would have to be presented in a form which ordinary people could understand. So, during the winter of 1536-1537, the 29-year-old Calvin wrote, in French, his Brief Outline of the Christian Faith... [This] is Calvin's striking but concise attempt to define the Christian faith for ordinary people!... Here you have the very core of Protestant belief and feel the warmth of its ardent love for God and men."
--From the Preface by Stuart Olyott

"This book is a little gem!... It would be hard to find a clearer summary of the faith in so short a compass, and perhaps impossible to find one so warm... Well worth the read!"
