Posted in Book Reviews on March 30, 2008 by Glen H

0802478182.01._SCLZZZZZZZ_ “Every Christian will bear fruit. Somewhere, sometime, somehow. Charles C. Ryrie

 

REVIEW NOTE: This is perhaps one of the best books I have ever read. It’s simple and precise. Ryrie is a wonderful teacher, and has a great ability to make a complex teaching, very plain. He quotes his sources very well, has done his homework, and backs everything up with a large amount of scripture. If you have ever wondered about the issue of Lordship Salvation. Ryrie does a wonderful job explaining the contradictions of the teaching that is held by men such as John MacArthur. He even has a small chapter that does a wonderful job defending eternal security. If you do not have this on your bookshelf. I highly recommend it.
