I thought I had read everything that Charles Ryrie had written but when a lady in our church was giving away some of her old books I saw this 1981 copy and realized I had never read it. Ryrie wrote this as his answer to Robert Gundry’s 1973 book The Church and the Tribulation, on […]

Transformed by His Glory
This is a study by Charles Ryrie of how the believer understands and lives in the light of God’s glory. In the process Ryrie takes the reader through a number of biblical texts and, in his own unique style, draws his points and material from the text. He begins with major texts of the Old […]
Balancing the Christian Life
I first read this book years ago (and that review is already logged) but I had loaned the book to someone who decided he needed it worse than I. Eventually I obtained another copy and finally had reason to read it again. Ryrie first published the book in 1969 and it went through five printings […]
A Survey of Bible Doctrine
Charles Ryrie (1925-2016) was long-time professor of Systematic Theology at Dallas Theological Seminary and Dean of Doctoral Studies. He was an ardent dispensationalist, pretribulationalist, and premillennialist. His book, Dispensationalism Today (now reprinted as Dispensationalism, of which I treasure an autographed copy from him in person) has been a standard text book for conservative schools for […]

In rereading the book (an easy read of 120 pages) I was encouraged by the orthodox presentation of what can be a very controversial doctrine. […]
Basic Theology
In doing some work for a class this fall, I finished reading Ryrie’s one-volume theology. This volume serves a needful purpose of making sound theology available to the average reader. Many of the older, standard works are voluminous in content and varied in theological perspective. Ryrie is well known for his orthodoxy as a premillennialist […]

Balancing The Christian Life
The following is a collation of books that I have not had space to include over the last couple issues. I heard Charles Ryrie speak last month and purchased two of his books which I had read before. Balancing The Christian Life has been updated in 1994. The chapter on Lordship salvation is especially relevant […]
