For those who are new Christians, or those who have often wondered about things such as predestination, the sovereignty of God, the infallibility of the Bible, etc., this book is a must read. Kennedy does an excellent job of presenting scriptural answers to all of these issues in easy to understand language. Especially in our day, when absolutes are so out of style, this book re-establishes the fact that God IS absolute.

I first read this book 15 years ago, and I still believe that it is the very best introduction to Reformed Theology that I have ever read. A must-have book. Even if you are fully conversant in Reformed theology, this is one you'll want to lend to others.

This is a short and concise book dealing with major Bible themes from a Reformed/Presbyterian perspective. D. James Kennedy is a pastor at Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church. This book is not technical, but it deals with Bible themes effectively. I would recommend this book to laypeople trying to understand doctrines like predestination, God's sovereignty, and humanity under sin. Considering that I consider myself a moderate Calvinist, I do not agree with all the things that Kennedy states. However, this book is a good read.
