Review 'Gerstner's study forms a strong rebuttal to a 1983 revisionist... analysis which denies Calvinist influence in the early culture.' J. Alton Templin, in: Church History, 1994 '...a substantial contribution to a vexed debate.' Elizabeth Elbourne, in: Journal of the North American Association for the Study of Religion, 1994 '...this study provides powerful insights into religious ideology and practice as crucial determinants of early colonial identity in South Africa.' Andrew Bank, in: Journal of African History, 1994 Product Description This study presents the religious factor in the development of a separatistic group identity among the forebears of the Afrikaners during the Dutch colonial period of South African history. The dominant strain of Dutch Reformed covenantal thought conveyed to South Africa treated the entire community as redeemed and called to be separate. This covenantal theory and its corresponding baptism helped to shape the emerging group identity. About the Author Jonathan Neil Gerstner is Executive Secretary of the Reformed Church in Canada Cambridge, Ontario. Publication: Edwardsian Preparation for Salvation.
