Lutheranism vs. Calvinism: The Classic Debate at the Colloquy of Montbéliard 1586

Newly translated into English, the debate at the colloquy of Montbéliard in 1586 shows the debate between a Lutheran and a Calvinist. It shows the distinctive doctrines of Lutheranism and Calvinism and, more generally, shows how to defend the Christian faith in debate.

Pastors, historians, and educated laity will want to read for themselves how Lutherans and Calvinists discussed the differences between them in the 16th century in order to understand what makes their confession of the Christian faith distinctive.
