If you want the party line on the "Five Points of Calvinism," then this will work for you. Don't expect nuance, understanding, or compassion for those who differ. (And I'm pretty Calvinistic--but in Spencer's world everything is starkly black and white. People either agree with him 100% or they're dead wrong.) I can appreciate the logic behind the five points, but I think they miss the point (!) that God is bigger than any theological system. What's more, when I read the Bible--any part of the Bible--I am confronted by a God who is living, not by just a set of propositions. Obviously much more could be--and has been--said (many times over). So I won't go on. But if you read this, do yourself a favor and read something more profound, like "The Open Secret" by Leslie Newbigin (or anything else by him). ( ) Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
TULIP is a popular acronym for the five points of Calvinism--total depravity, unconditional election, limited atonement, irresistible grace, and perseverance of the saints. In this book, these five points are not only concisely explained in the light of the Bible but are also helpfully contrasted to the corresponding five points of Arminianism. The differences between Calvanistic and Arminian beliefs are also summarized at the end of the book for quick reference. Anyone looking for an accessible explanation of this somewhat difficult and controversial doctrine, or looking for help in explaining it to others, will find this an invaluable resource. TULIP has had steady sales since its original Baker publication in 1979, and there is now nearly 55,000 copies in print. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
