With this first direct translation of Arminius' Declaration of Sentiments into English from the original Dutch, W. Stephen Gunter weaves expert translation with valuable notes and theological commentary. Gunter's introduction situates this overlooked but critically important work within its rich historical context and includes a clear, illuminating discussion of the debate over predestination. What emerges is an enlightening portrait of Arminius that challenges modern misconceptions about one of the most significant sixteenth-century theologians.

W. Stephen Gunter is Associate Dean for Methodist Studies and Research Professor of Evangelism and Wesleyan Studies at Duke Divinity School. He is author, co-author, or editor of six books, including most recently Considering the Great Commission: Evangelism and Mission in the Wesleyan Spirit; John Wesley and The Netherlands; and The Quotable Mr. Wesley. He lives in Durham, North Carolina.
The theological depth of Arminius' response to the restrictive dogmatism of some early 17th-century Calvinists has inspired others to conceptions that often range far from Arminius' own ideas. Stephen Gunter's careful translation of the Declaration of Sentiments once again places Arminius in the midst of contemporary theological discussion. Not merely an antiquarian artifact, Arminius' Declaration of Sentiments can once again contribute its inspiration to new conceptions.
Gunter's book makes a significant contribution to the resurgence of scholarship on Jacob Arminius. No longer having to rely on an archaic translation of a translation, English readers are now one step closer to the historical Arminius with this definitive translation of and commentary on his most important treatise.
