Theology
“Walter Marshall’s important treatise addressed a crucial conflict between antinomianism and a form of legalism at a decisive time in English history. T. Michael Christ, in this book, is the first to consider Marshall’s contribution in both context and depth, and he does so with keen acumen and fine judgment. It is an indispensable source for any serious consideration of the question.”
Theology
“Donald Macleod's work is always stimulating, sometimes provocative and never less than excellent. This is a contribution to thought on the atonement that is both timely and incisive. It should be required reading for students, theologians, ministers and anyone interested in learning more about the stupendous atoning work of Christ.”
Theology
Foreword
“I know of no book quite like this. Brand presents a highly effective blend of doctrinal theology and spirituality that is biblical, contemporary, historical, and pastoral. She investigates the doctrine of union with Christ and its implications for Reformed feminine spirituality, and does so from a position that heartily respects the text of Scripture and the tradition of interpretation within which she works. This is not a book of interest only to women; it should be read widely.”
Cornelius Van Til’s Doctrine of God and Its Relevance for Contemporary Hermeneutics
Theology
“Dr. Hunt has presented a careful, thorough, and stimulating analysis of Van Til's doctrine of God and demonstrates the many significant contributions it can make to current hermeneutical discussion. His cogent argument is to be welcomed and should provide a basis for ongoing reflection and practice.”
Theology
“Church leaders often dispute the need for confessions of faith on the grounds of the supreme authority of the Bible. In this timely book, Carl Trueman demonstrates effectively how such claims are untenable. We all have creeds—the Bible itself requires them—but some are unwritten, not open to public accountability, and the consequences can be damaging. Trueman’s case deserves the widest possible hearing.”
Christian Living
“If the church fails to clearly address the revolutionary cultural and social changes in today’s world, it will be a dereliction of duty, but if it identifies itself with any factions in that world, the piercing message of the gospel will be blunted. Alan Strange discusses these topics with great skill and insight, using his encyclopedic knowledge of Charles Hodge’s contribution to debates on slavery and the spirituality of the church. This is a book that should inform and shape our thinking; it is not to be missed.”
Essentials of Reformed Systematic Theology
Theology
“This condensed version of Beeke and Smalley’s more compendious volumes is to be greatly welcomed. It is to be hoped that a new readership will be reached and stimulated to search further into the riches of Reformed theology.”
Apologetics
“Geerhardus Vos and Cornelius Van Til were among the most significant Reformed thinkers of the last century, their legacy an enduring one. William Dennison is an eminent scholar, a leading exponent of their thought but with distinctive contributions of his own. This collection of his writings, building on both Vos and Van Til, will be of great interest to all who recognize that only when our thinking and living is shaped and directed by the trinitarian God can we be true to his revelation in the Bible.”
Christian Living
“Mark Jones’s helpful discussion of these major elements of the Christian faith demonstrates his point, shared with C. S. Lewis, that the best resources for devotion to Christ are found in substantial theological investigation conducted under the authority of Scripture.”
Christian Living
“Johnson has produced an excellent discussion of union with Christ. I am sure it will be consulted widely and contribute effectively to the church’s understanding of salvation.”
Theology
“'It is a great piece of work both because of the subject matter and also due to the limpid prose which makes it an ideal introduction as well as a clear, precise,, and reliable exposition. I have already recommended it to a number of people and will do so again...'”
Redemptive-Historical Hermeneutics and Homiletics
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“In this splendid, ground-breaking work, Yung Hoon Hyun demonstrates the significance and limits of redemptive-historical preaching, carefully distinguishing the controversies that surrounded it in the Netherlands and America, and critically evaluating the current discussions in Korea. This will be of major interest to all concerned for preaching in general and for the Korean church in particular.”
Reformed Systematic Theology, Volume 1
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“This account of the doctrines of revelation and of God, built on biblical exegesis, is rich in theological discussion and practical implications. It is very accessible and will be of interest to a wide readership. Beeke and Smalley are to be congratulated, and I look forward to further volumes in the future.”
Christian Living
“Reeves has expounded a crucial and central doctrine of the gospel with clarity and verve. This is a scintillating treatment of a vital subject.”
The Existence and Attributes of God
Theology
“Stephen Charnock’s work on the existence and attributes of God is perhaps the most thorough and detailed contribution to the topic in the post-Reformation period. Charnock’s pastoral instincts, his incisive grasp of scholastic literature, his theological precision, and his sensitivity to the biblical foundations of his subject made this an outstanding contribution to the church of his day. It is a great pleasure to see a complete and updated version in print and accessible to a new readership.”
The Lord's Supper as the Sign and Meal of the New Covenant
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“In this accessible, biblical-theological approach to the Lord’s Supper, Waters demonstrates the Supper’s integral place in redemptive history and its consequent importance for the life of the church, inasmuch as Christ offers himself as spiritual nourishment to be received through faith. This message needs to be heard and heeded. I hope this book has a wide readership.”
The Speaking Trinity and His Worded World
Theology
“Building on the work of Van Til, Frame, and Poythress, Hibbs has written a fascinating account of the Trinity as communicative, with language integral to creation and the nature of humanity in communion with God. Superbly written, his highly accessible discussion should do much to stimulate thought about God as Trinity. . . . He mounts a credible case that the Trinity is discernible all around us.”
Theology
“The sacraments are integral to the history of redemption, yet the evangelical church has tragically neglected them as secondary and nonessential. Tim Chester sets baptism and the Lord’s Supper vividly in their biblical and historical contexts. Superbly written, easily accessible to a wide readership, rooted in Scripture and the theology of the Reformation, this book can be a catalyst for widespread recovery of the supreme blessing God gives through his appointed signs.”
