Rick Shrader‘s Review:

These kinds of books take a great deal of patience to read through. However, today’s debates over the nature of God’s foreknowledge demand that we make honest effort at understanding men like Arminius. He, no doubt, was a thoughtful theologian with a desire to retain the sovereignty of God and the free will of man without conflict. While I find some of his thoughts too close to today’s Open Theism, I see his followers adding too much to his system of thought much like Calvin’s followers did to his. Interesting but slow reading!
