Historiam esse vitae magistram, vere dixerunt ethnicic
--Calvin on Romans 4:23-24

The editors wish to echo the author that all the following authors seek to honor by acknowledging not only that the world of unbelief occasionally joins Calvin in referring to history as the teacher of life (vitae magistram) but also that in our own lives, those who have preceded us have been marvelous teachers of life, precisely because they valued history so highly. For centuries, little-known (but faithful) professors have sought to enlighten young minds with the knowledge that John Calvin profferred. Our lives have been enriched by such, and we are profoundly grateful for those who taught us Calvin's Institutes and an appreciation for Cavin's insights. We wish to thank and dedicate this volume to all those who have been our seminary professors and life instructors, especially to those below tho kindly and wisely inculcated a love for Calvin in us during our formative years:

Dr. William S. Barker
Dr. Robert L. Reymond
Dr. David C. Jones
Dr. Joseph H. Hall
Dr. David C. Calhoun
Dr. D. Clair Davis
Dr. Sinclair B. Ferguson
Dr. S. Lewis Johnson
Dr. Richard B. Gaffin Jr.

[Foreword] Calvin's Institutes (5th edition, 1559) is one of the wonders of the literary world--the world, that is, or writers and writing, of digesting and arranging heaps of diverse materials, of skilfull proportioning and gripping presentation; the world, as Dorothy L. Sayers described it in The Mind of the Maker, of the Idea, the Word, and the Power.

[Preface] Over the centuries various ways have been found to gather some of the finest authorities for conversations.

John Calvin was twenty-six years old when he drafted the first edition of his Institutes of the Christian Religion, which was published in the following year, 1536.
