"A collection of prayers by the Scottish Reformer John Knox"--
John Knox Knihy
Tento autor byl klíčovou postavou Skotské reformace, který se zasloužil o zásadní proměnu církve ve Skotsku. Jeho teologické myšlení bylo hluboce ovlivněno předními reformátory a jeho práce formovaly kalvinistickou teologii a presbyteriánskou církevní správu. Jeho vliv se projevil i v úpravách oficiálních bohoslužebných textů a v psaní vyznání víry a církevních řádů. Jeho kázání a spisy podnítily hluboké náboženské a politické změny, které vedly k odstranění katolické moci a k ustanovení protestantské církve.
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.
