Olevianus, Caspar Early Orthodoxy Calvinism Reformed

Caspar Olevianus one of the founders of the Reformed Church of Germany, the co-laborer of Ursinus, and one of the compilers of the Heidelberg Catechism, was born August 10, 1536, near Treves. At age 14 Olevianus moved to Paris to study law. There he allied himself with French Protestant students whose spiritual depth and searching friendship soon won him to the Reformation. Afire now with the gospel, he finished law school and began devouring the theology of the Reformers. His insatiable appetite took him to the classrooms of Peter Martyr in Zurich, Theodore Beza in Lausanne, and John Calvin in Geneva.
