In this analysis of Calvin's view, McMahon explores Calvin's thoughts concerning reconciling God's love and the damnation of the reprobate. He explains Calvin's doctrine of accommodation, centering on understanding the difference between the will of God's decree and the precepts of God's word. Also analyzed is Calvin's view of God's province as Supreme Ruler over creation, Calvin's view of hardening the reprobate's heart, and his view of the Gospel call when the reprobate are called to repent and believe the Gospel. McMahon is an American Calvinist Reformed theologian and adjunct professor at Whitefield Theological Seminary. He is the founder of A Puritan's Mind and Puritan Publications which publishes Reformed and Puritan works from the 17th century.
