QR code
"A Body of Divinity, Vol. 3 (of 4)" by Thomas Ridgley is a theological work written in the early 19th century. This volume is part of a larger series that explains and defends the doctrines of the Christian religion based on the Assembly’s Larger Catechism. Ridgley's work delves into complex topics such as the nature of Christ’s union with the church, the benefits of effectual calling, and core Christian beliefs like justification
and sanctification. The opening of this volume elaborates on the benefits that members of the invisible church receive through their union with Christ. It addresses concepts such as effectual calling, emphasizing that this divine work is essential for spiritual regeneration and facilitates true communion with Christ. Ridgley delineates the difference between common grace and the transformative power of effectual calling, outlining the need for God’s grace to enable sinners to respond to His invitation. This groundwork sets the stage for deeper theological exploration throughout the volume, guiding readers through essential aspects of Christian doctrine. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
