This is the fourth work in the well - known series known as The Institutes of the Christian Religion by John Calvin. In our Pure Gold Classics series, this book follows God the Creator, God the Redeemer, and Obtaining the Grace of Christ. These books form what has been called the Magnum Opus of Christian Theology. Relying heavily on the Scriptures, Calvin addresses three primary topics in this book: 1. The universal Church of Jesus Christ - its unity, government, power, and discipline 2. The sacraments of the Church - baptism and the Lord's Supper 3. The role of civil government - magistrates, laws, and the people
