The Sacred Doctrine of Divinity is an important Puritan systematic theology in Christian, Reformed, or Calvinistic systematic theologies and yet, it might also be described as a formal Biblical theology. This work by Henry Finch rests comfortably on the bookshelf of Puritan theologies as those of Wolfgang Musculus, Peter Vermigli, Edmund Bunny, John Prime, and Girolamo Zanchi.Published in 1589 by Sir Henry French, member of Parliament, lawyer, and Puritan, the Sacred Doctrine of Divinity was written in Early Modern English, similar to Elizabethan or Shakespearean English.* This present work is the first translation into contemporary English of Sir Henry French's The Sacred Doctrine of Divinity.* Grammatical changes were necessary to adapt this work for contemporary readers, without theological license or correction, but balanced in an attempt to stay faithful to the original structure and theological impact.* Glosses and marginal commentary are annotated with the use of footnotes.* The text has been corrected for the usage of medial s (ſ), and v-initial/u-middle occurrences (e.g., haue for have, vpon for upon).* Usage of thy/thou are retained only in the section on the Lord's Prayer, as it seemed fitting to preserve the impact and feel of the original text.Uppercase He and Him reflect a common stylistic and reverential purpose, yet the reader should not infer a lack of respect on behalf of Puritans writing in the style of their day.

“Essential and thoroughly engaging...Harvey Cox’s ingenious sense of how market theology has developed a scripture, a liturgy, and sophisticated apologetics allow us to see old challenges in a remarkably fresh light.” —E. J. Dionne, Jr. We have fallen in thrall to the theology of supply and demand. According to its acolytes, the Market is omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent. It can raise nations and ruin households, and comes complete with its own doctrines, prophets, and evangelical zeal. Harvey Cox brings this theology out of the shadows, demonstrating that the way the world economy operates is shaped by a global system of values that can be best understood as a religion. Drawing on biblical sources and the work of social scientists, Cox points to many parallels between the development of Christianity and the Market economy. It is only by understanding how the Market reached its “divine” status that can we hope to restore it to its proper place as servant of humanity. “Cox argues that...we are now imprisoned by the dictates of a false god that we ourselves have created. We need to break free and reclaim our humanity.” —Forbes “Cox clears the space for a new generation of Christians to begin to develop a more public and egalitarian politics.” —The Nation

Famed historian of religion Mircea Eliade observes that even moderns who proclaim themselves residents of a completely profane world are still unconsciously nourished by the memory of the sacred. Eliade traces manifestations of the sacred from primitive to modern times in terms of space, time, nature, and the cosmos. In doing so he shows how the total human experience of the religious man compares with that of the nonreligious. This book serves as an excellent introduction to the history of religion, but its perspective also emcompasses philosophical anthropology, phenomenology, and psychology. It will appeal to anyone seeking to discover the potential dimensions of human existence. -- P. [4] of cover.
