| Summary | "History of the Reformation in Europe in the Time of Calvin, Vol. 7 (of 8)" by Rev. J. H. Merle D’Aubigné is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume continues the exploration of the Protestant Reformation during the 16th century focusing on prominent figures like John Calvin, and the events that shaped the religious landscape of Europe. It delves into the intricate dynamics of Calvin's governance and theological principles, highlighting both the personal and institutional struggles inherent in the reformation movement. The opening of the volume provides context for Calvin's influential return to Geneva after his initial exile. It discusses the challenges faced by the Geneva church, the shortcomings of its current ministers, and the resulting crisis that necessitated Calvin's recall. The text outlines the longing of the Genevese community for their steadfast leader, Calvin, and presents his inner turmoil as he grapples with the decision to return—facing fears of past strife yet feeling a divine calling to restore order and faith in the church. The narrative emphasizes the fervent wishes of Calvin's contemporaries as they advocate for his return and set the stage for the resurgence of Calvin’s leadership and the re-establishment of his doctrines in Geneva.
