Conrad Vorstius

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Conrad Vorstius[1] (Cologne 1569–1622) was a German-Dutch Protestant theologian, and successor to Jacobus Arminius in the theology chair at Leiden.

He was accused of Socinianism and was at the centre of a sharp controversy at Leiden. James I of England wrote a 1612 pamphlet against him. In that year Vorstius was removed from his position[2].
