Genre


Gerrit Hendrik Kersten was a Dutch Calvinist Christian minister, Theologian and politician.

In 1907, Kersten founded the Reformed Congregations and in 1918 he founded the political party Govermental Reformed Party ( SGP).

In 1922 he was voted into the parliament. His vote for cutting the budget for diplomatic representation at the Holy See, led to the fall of the Colijn Cabinet in 1925.

He viewed the 1940 occupation of the Netherlands by the Germans as punishment of god. In 1945 he was barred from parliament and from working as a journalist.

“Even more richly than in His name and attributes, God has revealed Himself in His Word as the Triune God. In this revelation He reveals the great mystery, far beyond the comprehension of all creatures, that His simple Divine Essence consists in three Persons; and that not in such a way that each of the three persons would possess one part of the Divine Essence, so that by combining they would form the full God-head; but God is a simple Being, and thus is far from being a combination of parts. God consists not of three Persons, but in three Persons; the full Being of God is in the Father, and the same full Being is in the Son, and in the Holy Spirit. The Father is God; the Son is God, no less than the Father; and the Holy Spirit is God, of the same eternity, glory, and majesty as the Father and Son. Among the Divine Persons there is not a first or last, nor is one greater or less. And still there is but one, simple, Divine Being. God is Tri-une.”
G. Henry Kersten, Reformed Dogmatics
