He contrasts Calvinism with other theological traditions, such as Arminianism and Roman Catholicism, and defends its theological and philosophical coherence.Overall, Calvinism: Six Stone Foundation Lectures is a comprehensive and insightful exploration of one of the most influential theological traditions in the history of Christianity.
