Synopsis:
The Christian's Only Comfort is the sermonic exposition of the Heidelberg Catechism by Theodore VanderGroe (1705-1784), a prominent divine of the Dutch Further Reformation. VanderGroe's exposition of the Heidelberg Catechism could be considered his magnum opus, and in some ways it was esteemed as highly by the godly in the Netherlands as The Christian's Reasonable Service of Wilhelmus à Brakel.
In this able exposition of the Heidelberg Catechism, we find the unmistakable characteristics of the Dutch Further Reformation: it is steeped in Scripture; it is very pastoral; and it promotes a robust, comprehensive form of Reformed piety.
About the Author: Theodore VanderGroe (1705-1784) is one of the last and most well-known representatives of the Dutch Further Reformation. He serves churches in Rijnsaterwoude and Kralingen, devoting a total of fifty four years of his life to pastoral ministry.
Bartel Elshout is a minister in the Heritage Reformed Congregations, serving in Hull, Iowa, and a translator from Dutch to English of numerous Reformed works, including Wilhelmus à Brakel's The Christian's Reasonable Service.
Joel R. Beeke is president and professor of systematic theology and homiletics at Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He also serves as a pastor of the Heritage Reformed Congregation in Grand Rapids.
