Here We Stand: Commemorating the 500th Anniversary of the Reformation

by Ronald L. Cammenga (editor)

The great sixteenth-century church Reformation was so significant an event that virtually every church today is affected by that history, as well as its reforms in doctrine and life. This book demonstrates the impact of that historic event by focusing on a few aspects of the Reformation, including the crucial issues of justification by faith alone, the authority of scripture, and proper worship. This book also covers two lesser-known, yet significant aspects of the Reformation that began in 1517: the unique development of the Reformation in the Lowlands and the reformers’ response to the “radical reformation.”

The chapters included in this book are written by: Prof. Ronald L. Cammenga (editor), Rev. David Torlach, Prof. Barrett L. Gritters, Rev. Martyn McGeown, Prof. Russell Dykstra, and Rev. Steven Key.

This is a very nice little volume. Although it is a collaboration of several authors, the focuses of each chapter are different enough to avoid a lot of repetition. Especially memorable was the chapter on the Reformation's restoring of the doctrine of the priesthood of the believer. These are top-rate scholars who have pooled a lot of research and study into 6 chapters - each with its own special focus, but all working together to celebrate the great work of God which the Reformation was.

Highly recommended!
