About this title

Review:

I purchased this book as I sought to more fully understand the issues behind Calvinism, and the specific doctrines generally held by those of that dispensation. I was very pleased to find a thorough, Biblically backed up presentation of those very issues I had questions about. Not only was each chapter clearly presented in an easy to follow format, but the technical format of the book made it easy on the eyes. The vocabulary used in the text may cause you to keep a dictionary handy during your reading sessions, but other than this I found the book easy to follow. Those of you seeking to understand what the 'five points of Calvinism' are and the manner in which they apply in a practical fashion to your life would do well to read this text.
