Calvinism has a bad rap,
By Gregory Noble (Midlothian, VA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Reformed Faith (Paperback)
I didn't read this pamphlet as a Calvinist or a believer in predestination. I was very much antagonistic toward the concepts. But the book lays out the Scriptural basis for the reformed system of faith in a straight forward manner without invective. It contrasts the reformed view with the arminian view point by point and demonstrates through Scriptural reference why each is supported or not. Or I should say, it demonstrates how Scripture ultimately leads one to the reformed perspective if you follow Scripture in its whole and not just concentrate on the various parts in which you feel most comfortable. This is a most excellent, quick study to get the serious seeker started toward self evaluation of what they believe and why from the Holy Scripture.

Great little primer,
By Chancellor C. Roberts, II (Buffalo, NY United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Reformed Faith (Paperback)
Boettner is one of the great authors within Calvinist Christianity (he is also the author of, among other works, The Reformed Doctrine of Predestination, which is perhaps the most thorough work on the subject).The Reformed Faith is a great little primer on, well, "the Reformed faith" otherwise known as Calvinism; though, more accurately, it's a primer on what have been called "the doctrines of grace" and "the five points of Calvinism" (represented by the acronym TULIP). As such, it adeptly shows the differences between Arminian (not Armenian) and Calvinist soteriology and (obviously) argues in favor of the Calvinist view. Whether you're an Arminian or a Calvinist, this booklet is well worth reading. For the Arminian, it will provide you with an understanding of the Calvinist view (both of soteriology and of the Arminian view of it) without being filtered through the Arminian hyperbole of trying to argue against Calvinism by arguing against hypercalvinism - and it even includes a chart that presents the Arminian and Calvinist views side-by-side. For the Calvinist, it's a great reminder of what we believe and why; and it's a great tool that will help you give an answer to those who ask you to give account "for the hope that is in you" (1 Peter 3:15). Buy several copies to give away to family, friends and others, or to make available in your church's literature rack.
