Johannes Arnoldi Corvinus (real surname Ravens) (died 1650) was a Dutch Remonstrant minister and jurist.

Life

He was born in Leiden, and in 1606 was a Calvinist preacher there. Taking up the Arminian views, he was a public supporter of them by 1609, and in 1610 signed the Five Articles of Remonstrance. Subsequently, as a consequence of the Synod of Dort, he lost his church office in 1619.[1]
