Abstract

The presence of the affiliates of the Ecclesia Minor on Dutch soil dates to the end of the sixteenth century. Numerous young Socinians completed their cultural training by attending universities outside their own national territory, and in particular in Holland. The Remonstrant theologian personally supervised the printing of the works of Samuel Przypkowski, which were to see the light only ten years later, in 1692, collected in the weighty in-folio entitled Cogitationes sacrae, ostensibly printed in Eleutheropoli, which was obviously Amsterdam. The Dissertatio de pace et concordia Ecclesiae played a significant role not only in Przypkowski's own production but also within the larger sphere of Socinian thought. For Episcopius, as later for Limborch, the divine decrees necessary for human salvation are simple, are within the reach of the minds of all men, and are unequivocally contained in the Bible and the words of Christ. Keywords: Limborch; national territory; Samuel Przypkowski; Socinian
