"A collection of prayers by the Scottish Reformer John Knox"--
John Knox Knihy
Tento autor bol kľúčovou postavou Škótskej reformácie, ktorý sa zaslúžil o zásadnú premenu cirkvi v Škótsku. Jeho teologické myslenie bolo hlboko ovplyvnené poprednými reformátormi a jeho diela formovali kalvinistickú teológiu a presbyteriánsku cirkevnú správu. Jeho vplyv sa prejavil aj v úpravách oficiálnych bohoslužobných textov a v písaní vierovyznania a cirkevných poriadkov. Jeho kázne a spisy podnietili hlboké náboženské a politické zmeny, ktoré viedli k odstráneniu katolíckej moci a k ustanoveniu protestantskej cirkvi.
This edition showcases John Knox's pivotal writings that address the theme of rebellion against oppressive rule. It delves into his arguments for resistance and the moral justification of challenging tyranny, reflecting the historical context of the Reformation. Knox's passionate advocacy for religious freedom and governance rooted in justice is central to his work, making this collection essential for understanding his influence on political thought and the fight against despotism.
