In Defense of the Eschaton

Apologetics

“I am very pleased that James Baird has collated and edited these fine selections from the prolific pen of William Dennison in In Defense of the Eschaton. Dennison has reminded us anew of the influence of Geerhardus Vos on his pupil Cornelius Van Til. Dennison demonstrates the essential nexus between covenantal (presuppositional) apologetics and the eschatalogically infused redemptive history. It is impossible to go away from reading In Defense of the Eschaton and not now see how the truth that "eschatology precedes soteriology" suffuses the apologetic task. The antithesis between belief and unbelief reflects the reality of the overlap of this present evil age and the age to come. If I say that Dennison is brilliant and solidly biblical and Reformed, it is true but an understatement. This volume leaves the reader wanting more.”

Luther’s Augustinian Theology of the Cross

Theology

“Marco Barone in this book provides us with a fascinating study of Luther's anti-Pelagian (i.e., Augustinian) convictions. Then he tests his thesis by looking at and comparing and contrasting Luther's perspective with certain prevalent philosophical views. This is work of a high caliber and tremendously fruitful for faithful confessional orthodox constructive theology.”

Mediator

Theology

“Vern Poythress continues to impress with his meticulous examination of the historically progressive unfolding of the theme of mediatorship in the Old and New Testaments. Tracing the development of the necessity of mediation from before the fall, all the way up to the consummation in the descent of the New Jerusalem, the author highlights the tightly woven threads that make up the fabric of creation and redemption that reach their culmination in the person and work of Jesus Christ, the one God-man able to stand between a holy God and a sinful people.”

My Child, His Child

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“My Child, His Child is not only a sound exposition of the Ten Commandments, but it is a window into Diane's spiritual growth in grace and that of her sons as well. While the focus seemingly is on her sons' sinful failures and her own in response, it really is on the graciousness of God in Christ who has given us his law to guide us in our walk with the Lord, ever dependent upon his Holy Spirit working in his Word.”

The Covenant Theology of Jonathan Edwards

Theology

“Paul Hoehner has provided us with a historically and theologically contextually sensitive treatment of Jonathan Edwards as a Reformed covenant or federal theologian. Hoehner interacts with recent criticisms of Edwards as to his Reformed bona fides. The author corrects numerous misunderstandings of Edwards and provides us with the lenses we need to not only read Jonathan Edwards appreciatively, but carefully and accurately. Hoehner has advanced Edwards studies, and scholars and interested readers will owe him a debt of gratitude. Hoehner shows that there is still more territory to traverse in Edwards scholarship. May his tribe increase!”
