Updated for Modern Readers
"The Foundation of Christian Religion: Gathered into Six Principles" by William Perkins is a seminal work in Protestant theology. Addressed to those seeking religious understanding, it systematically presents the core principles of Christian faith. The book is structured around key theological questions about God, human nature, salvation through Christ, the means of obtaining faith, the state after death, and the role of sacraments and prayer. Perkins' exposition is deeply rooted in Scripture and reflects the Reformation's emphasis on personal faith and scriptural authority, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in foundational Christian beliefs.
