5.0 out of 5 stars
Concise,Well Prepared, "" Hand Out Reference !,
By Bran Copeland (Spartanburg, SC United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Five Points of Calvinism: Defined, Defended, Documented (Paperback)
Concise and excellent summary of Arminianism vs Calvinism debate. A great gift and quick read for those with whom you want to discuss the basic core issues of Reformed faith with the unique assurance and hope it brings to the heart through the Word. Long list of biblical references! Especially nice to have numerous reference works listed for further study and scholarly exegesis on the "foreknew" of Romans 8:29. Buy it and hand it out to those in need ( besides yourself )!

The Classical Work on Calvinism,
By
This review is from: The Five Points of Calvinism: Defined, Defended, Documented (Paperback)
Every disciple should read and study Steele's book, THE FIVE POINTS OF CALVINISM. Wherever you find yourself on the debate of Calvinsim, this book is needed to help you learn the five main points of Calvinism first coined at the Synod of Dort.The book deals with both the history, theology, and philosophy of Calvinism and seeks to show that Calvinism is both logical and biblical. The book is an excellent resource for defending or attacking Calvinism because of its popularity and its presupposition that Calvinism can be defended from Scripture. I would highly recommend the updated form of this book with a new appendix on Divine Foreknowledge.

A Biblical look at the defense of Calvinism,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Five Points of Calvinism: Defined, Defended, Documented (Paperback)
This little book is a must for anyone interested in knowing exactely what Calvinists believe from true Calvinists. The authors go out of their way to demonstrate their positions from a Biblical point of view, and they do so in a convincing manner.
