Rick Shrader‘s Review:

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 and the chapter on Legalism is a message the Church needs to hear (you may be surprised at what he says). The Basis Of The Premillennial Faith is a 1953 book reprinted in 1989. It was Ryrie’s doctoral dissertation at Dallas Seminary. Of special note is its relevance to the current dispensational debate.

The Corinthians were especially good at it, even “glorying” in their toleration of sin (1 Cor. 5:6). Paul was hindered in writing to them, […]
