The Political Theology of Abraham Kuyper

Description

Abraham Kuyper (1837-1920) was both a brilliant theologian and a successful politician. This is why his political theology is unique: it is fully theology, but also a base for a practical Christian influence on society, which he implemented in the Netherlands at the turn of the 19th century. This lecture discusses the main theological themes of his approach, namely the sovereignty of God, worldview, antithesis, common grace, and sphere sovereignty.
