REDESCUBRIENDO A UN GIGANTE OLVIDADO Pedro Mártir Vermigli es reconocido como uno de los reformadores más destacados del siglo XVI, superado teológicamente solo por Juan Calvino. Pese a su vasta influencia teológica a través de los años, su legado ha permanecido casi inexplorado en español hasta el momento. Presentamos la primera parte de un proyecto apasionante que traduce los Loci Communes, su teología sistemática, por primera vez desde 1583. Este tomo te introduce en un profundo debate sobre el pecado original, la voluntad humana y la ley divina, destacando sus raíces bíblicas y patrísticas. Vermigli no solo respalda la visión agustiniana del pecado y la gracia, sino que también contrapone las perspectivas del teólogo católico semi-pelagiano Albert Pighius, todo con una prosa elegante y erudita. "Pedro Mártir Vermigli es, sin duda, uno de los teólogos reformados más importantes del siglo XVI y sus Loci Communes son la joya de su obra colectiva. La conversión de esta obra al español contemporáneo es un valioso aporte para comprender el pensamiento de la Reforma y será enriquecedor tanto para académicos como para pastores."Jordan J. Ballor Pedro Mártir Vermigli (1499-1562) es una figura olvidada de la Reforma Protestante. Con un legado que se extiende desde Nápoles hasta Zúrich y Oxford, Vermigli dejó numerosos comentarios bíblicos y tratados. Además, un grupo de discípulos leales compiló sus escritos en el extenso compendio teológico conocido como los Loci Communes. Esta es la primera entrega de un proyecto innovador destinado a traducir los Loci Communes por primera vez desde 1583. Presentada aquí en una traducción clara y erudita, la profunda discusión de Vermigli sobre el pecado original muestra las bases bíblicas y patrísticas de esta polémica doctrina, resaltando su importancia para la ortodoxia protestante. Este tratado se caracteriza por su habilidad exegética, erudición histórica y sofisticación filosófica.The Davenant Institute Sobre el autor: Pedro Mártir Vermigli (1499-1562) fue un destacado reformador protestante del siglo XVI.

For pastors and counselors navigating the murky waters of abuse, T. Samuel Nye unfolds the distinct genius of the gospel when egregious sins are committed against the dignity of another person. He expounds the fundamental biblical issues in play as well as the psychological, medical, clinical, legal, and pastoral-all critical to navigating cases of sexual abuse in harmony with the gospel. For the abused and abusers, he urges them to work through the issue of offenses in harmony with the ethic of the gospel.T. Samuel Nye has served as a pastor for over twenty years and currently travels as an itinerate minister.What others are saying: The tragedy is that this book is necessary. We live in a dark and sinful world where atrocities beyond imagination or comprehension occur. How to minister to those who have been so violently assaulted is a pressing and sobering question. The title of this work The Gospel and Sexual Abuse points to the only ultimate answer to that pressing question. The gospel of Christ is the answer to every sin and issue of life. Nye effectively demonstrates how to bring the gospel to bear on this devastating situation. The illustrations, examples, analogies, and rubrics for counselling are helpful, but Nye makes clear that the Bible is the touchstone for addressing this tragedy of life. Those who are called upon to minister to those who are so hurting will find this little book to be a useful guide.Michael Barrett, PhDSenior Research Professor/Biblical StudiesPuritan Reformed Theological SeminaryThe brilliance of the gospel is that it enables God's people to practically walk in Christ's love with those cruelly mistreated by others. While not glossing over the pain of sin, Jesus calls the church to care for - with His grace and truth - those who have been shattered by sin. Although not a simple subject to tackle, sexual abuse is not beyond the hope and ethics of the gospel. Sadly, in their attempt to help, too often churches have naively done more damage than good, because of a hesitancy to seek guidance in the complexities of dealing with the perpetrators of and caring for victims of sexual abuse. To that end, Todd Nye's timely book, The Gospel and Sexual Abuse, addresses with Gospel grace and Biblical truth the painful real-world issues involved in the care of sexual abuse survivors. The great benefit of this book is three-fold: First, it is bathed in the Gospel grace of Jesus, which sweetens the sourest of experiences. Second, it is saturated with God's Word without rejecting God's wisdom also revealed through common grace. Third, it reflects decades of the pastoral experience of a man of God, Todd Nye. I highly recommend this work as a resource to those who care for others in and through the church.David Saxton, ThMPastor, Cambridge Bible ChurchCambridge, OHWriting a book to bring healing to victims of abuse and to address forgiveness to the perpetrators of it is as commendable and necessary as it is intimidating. Todd Nye has presented, not an easy way, but a sure way to healing and forgiveness. The conscientious and specific examination of biblical teaching sets out violated duties and unmerited rights before divine perfection as the foundation for healing and reconciliation. Todd shows that God has made a way through the trauma of abuse. Todd's alert and affirmative writing tone, a welcome human and compassionate resonance throughout the book, adds more than just what such a book needs to be-it expresses, but also breathes, the hope that the God who ably made the universe readily restores the individual.Dan HurstTrinity College
