Book Description

February 15, 2008

Ever wondered about how to talk with believers who disagree with your beliefs without compromising sound doctrine? In this remarkably clear presentation, Norman Geisler, one of the nation’s leading apologetics experts, teams with Reasoning from the Scriptures president Ron Rhodes to explore the well–known saying “In essentials, unity; in nonessentials, liberty; in all things, charity.”

Beginning with essential doctrines such as the inspiration and inerrancy of Scripture, Christ’s deity, and 14 others, Conviction without Compromise provides solid scriptural defenses while showing how various movements have moved away from historic, biblical Christianity.

Then the authors show why Christians can disagree agreeably about more than a dozen important but nonessential beliefs such as the nature of spiritual gifts, the role of women in the church, and the nature of sacraments.

Finally, the section on charity highlights some “rules of engagement” and explores lessons learned from church history.

A must–read for Christians who care about sharing their faith.

5.0 out of 5 stars Norman Geislerr Does It Again!, April 3, 2008
This review is from: Conviction Without Compromise: Standing Strong in the Core Beliefs of the Christian Faith (Paperback)
Conviction Without Compromise is new (2008) and a great one-volume treatise on the Christian faith. The book categorizes the doctrines of salvation, revelation, and interpretation. Dr. Geisler and his co-author, Dr. Ron Rhodes, are of the same ilk and those who have read their books (numbering more than 100) will find this book impelling and thoughtful. It is written for the layman and minister alike. While some scholars may fault the book for its brevity on important issues of Christian doctrine they will find the book well researched and Biblically supported. As the dean of a Christian seminary, we are planning to include it as required reading for several of our post graduate courses. I pre-ordered the book anticipating that it would be a super textbook for our seminary. I was not disappointed.

This review is from: Conviction Without Compromise: Standing Strong in the Core Beliefs of the Christian Faith (Paperback)
This captures why we need to be firm as Christians and why we need not fight over non-salvation issues!

This review is from: Conviction Without Compromise: Standing Strong in the Core Beliefs of the Christian Faith (Paperback)
Geisler and Rhodes provide a good overview of the different doctrines that make up Christianity. In fact, they do their best to explain the difference between essential and peripheral doctrines, and I think they are successful in doing this. After explaining the importance of the essentials (i.e. Who is God, Who is Jesus, What is Salvation, etc), they give the different sides of the peripherals (i.e. tongues, women in church, etc). Of course, they're biased and give their reasons why, but at least they do give as many points as they can in a limited paperback book. It's not perfect, but it's good enough to help the average Christian think through some of the issues that are debated within Christianity. At the end of each chapter, they explain why unity within the body is vital, despite our differences on the minor (though important) issues. It will make for a very good reference book, especially when these subjects come up.
