Review:

"One could hardly wish for a better study resource to show the five points' faithfulness to Scripture." --J. I. Packer

"Truly a classic—clear, concise, and warm in its presentation of historic Reformed theology. This latest edition is even better than the original." --R. C. Sproul

"Next to the doctrine of salvation, the sovereignty of God has, to me, been the most powerfully comforting truth. My thanks to P&R Publishing for issuing a new edition of this excellent book." --Joni Eareckson Tada
