This sheet is a call for a public meeting signed by the student E. Barger (1846–1917), secretary of Philistoria. The document includes nine theses by Kuyper on the Christian Historical movement. The theses have to do with what he considered the fundamental starting points in political theory: the Christian principle and the revolutionary principle of 1789. A copy of this notification of the meeting has been preserved.

Philistoria was a debating society at Utrecht for theology and law students involved in the Christian Historical movement (cf. 1992.01, p. 4, note 2). Kuyper was involved in the founding of Philistoria, patronized this student society, and was honorary chairman. The first meeting of the society was held on October 31, 1869.
