Robert Gromacki was the long-time professor of Biblical Studies at Cedarville College. I had read this book years ago (first edition 1973, second edition 1981) as a young Bible college teacher myself. Gromacki was a dispensationalist and premillennial pretribulationalist, so he was read widely by fundamentalists in those days, myself included. This book is more […]

Five Views on Sanctification
Stanley Gundry is editor of this volume and the “Counterpoints” series. This volume was first published in 1987 but continues to be relevant to any age. The five views on sanctification are the Wesleyan, Reformed, Pentecostal, Keswick, and Augustinian-Dispensational perspectives. John Walvoord wrote the dispensational perspective and gives the traditional point of view from that […]
Progressive Covenantalism
This 2016 book, by two Southern Seminary professors and eight other writers, explores the new challenge to traditional Covenant Theology. There are ten chapters, or topics, discussed but Brent Parker’s chapter on “The Israel-Christ-Church Relationship” is the clearest section of the book in defining just what Progressive Covenantalism is. He writes, “Progressive Covenantalism argues that […]
The Life Story of C.I. Scofield
Biographies of great men are always a blessing and a help in placing things right in history. C.I. Scofield is a household name among Christians because of the Reference Bible bearing his name. Trumbull was a personal friend and student of Scofield’s and writes in a more positive tone than some other later writers who […]
What About Foot Washing?
It’s not unusual to be asked about baptism or the Lord’s Supper but in conjunction with that the question of foot washing as an ordinance of the church often comes up. I usually reply that I certainly believe in foot washing, especially for boys under ten years old! But why is it that I do […]
Half the Church
Carolyn Custis James wrote this book as her own addendum to the best selling secular book, Half the Sky, which is a book based on the Chinese proverb that women hold up half the sky. It is a cry for justice and action against the oppression of women and girls around the world. Without having […]
God Created Woman
Genesis 1 “The woman was made of a rib out of the side of Adam; not made out of his head to rule over him, nor out of his feet to be trampled upon by him, but out of his side to be equal with him, under his arm to be protected, and near […]
Orthodoxy and Heresy in Early Christian ...
The list of beneficial and informative books edited by Dr. Paul Hartog continues to grow. Hartog, a trained patristics scholar, has compiled ten chapters along with eight other New Testament and church history scholars, to examine the long-standing liberal thesis of Walter Bauer (1877-1960). The book is extremely beneficial to believers today because Bauer’s thesis, […]
Will The Antichrist Be Muslim?
One of the difficulties for Christians in apologetics is that they have to know a lot about many religions and cults, but the religions and cults only have to know about Christianity. The growing threat from Islam reminds the Christian of this very thing. That is why I was glad to receive a book exposing […]
The Greatness of the Kingdom
During my seminary years (1972-1975) I was assigned this book as the text for a class on the Kingdom. I think this one book did more for my understanding of the New Testament, especially the Gospels, than any other book I read during those years. That class on the kingdom was taught by Dr. Rolland […]
