Originally written in response to Albertus Pighius, a Catholic theologian advocating for human free will in salvation, Calvin’s arguments present a robust and biblically grounded view of humanity’s moral inability.
本书最初是为回应天主教神学家阿尔贝图斯·皮吉乌斯而写，他主张人类在救恩中拥有自由意志，加尔文的论证则提出了一个强有力且基于圣经的人类道德无能的观点。
This edition has been abridged and carefully simplified to bring Calvin’s timeless insights to modern readers, omitting dense language and complex references while preserving the essence of Calvin’s thought.
此版本经过删节和精心简化，旨在将加尔文永恒的洞见带给现代读者，删除了晦涩的语言和复杂的引注，同时保留了加尔文思想的精髓。
This work is a compelling call to recognize humanity’s deep need for God’s grace.
这部著作是一个强有力的呼吁，旨在让人认识到人类对神恩典的深切需要。
Calvin demonstrates that the human will, corrupted by sin, cannot incline itself toward God or do true good without divine intervention.
加尔文阐明，被罪败坏的人类意志，若无神的介入，自身无法倾向神或行出真正的良善。
By addressing notions like “necessity versus coercion,” Calvin clarifies that while human actions are voluntary, they are nonetheless bound by a sinful nature that inevitably turns away from God without the Holy Spirit’s transforming power.
通过阐述诸如“必然性与强制性”之类的概念，加尔文澄清道，虽然人的行为是自愿的，但它们仍然受到罪性的捆绑，若无圣灵更新的大能，这罪性必然使人远离神。
At the heart of this book is Calvin’s message of hope: salvation and the ability to live rightly are not achieved by human effort but are gifts from God’s mercy and love.
本书的核心是加尔文充满盼望的信息：救恩和过正直生活的能力并非靠人的努力获得，而是来自神怜悯和慈爱的恩赐。
Calvin’s conviction that divine grace alone frees the enslaved will makes this book an encouragement to believers and a challenge to those who see salvation as human-centered.
加尔文坚信唯独神的恩典才能释放被奴役的意志，这一信念使本书成为对信徒的鼓励，也是对那些将救恩视为以人为中心之人的挑战。
As readers journey through Calvin’s reflections, they are invited to discover, as Calvin did, that true freedom and faith flow from dependence on God’s sovereign grace.
当读者们沉浸于加尔文的默想时，他们受邀去发现，正如加尔文所发现的那样，真正的自由和信心源于对神主权恩典的信靠。
This accessible edition will guide both new and seasoned readers into a deeper understanding of salvation, humility, and the richness of God’s mercy, while staying true to Calvin’s original intent and theological depth.
这个通俗易懂的版本将引导新老读者更深入地理解救恩、谦卑以及神丰盛的怜悯，同时忠于加尔文的原意和神学深度。
