| Summary | "Letters of John Calvin, Volume II" by Jean Calvin is a historical collection of correspondence written in the mid-16th century. This volume compiles letters from the influential Protestant reformer John Calvin, offering insights into his life, thoughts, and the theological and political issues of his time. The letters discuss various subjects, including church governance, personal struggles, and reflections on faith amid persecution, providing a glimpse into the Reformation era. At the start of this volume, Calvin shares his concerns about the unpopularity he faces and the challenges within the Swiss territories, particularly towards the King of France regarding the Vaudois people. He also expresses support for a friend, Monsieur de Falais, encouraging him to maintain faith amidst his trials and to find comfort in God's promises. Throughout his correspondence, Calvin discusses various matters such as the election of ministers, personal health, and the state of the church, painting a vivid picture of the challenges faced by Reformed Christians in a tumultuous period.
