Excerpt:
” Few can disagree with the view that Calvinism is one of the most important theological movements in the history of the Christian church. Whether one is a Calvinist or a not, all must acknowledge that Calvinism has claimed an important and influential role in molding and shaping the church for the last five hundred years…Calvinism can determine one’s views on politics, government, the Christian life, the study of eschatology, the nature of God, the character of man…” (pg. 15)

“Does theology have consequences? Of course! 

“The theological schools of Calvinism and Dispensationalism both influence our understanding of important doctrines of the Bible. This book contrasts crucial issues in the current debate between the two. Its major focus is on the consequences of Calvinism.

“Some major topics include:

  • Is God the author of sin?
  • The sovereignty of God
  • “One-naturism”
  • Dispensationalism and antinomianism
  • What does the Bible teach about election?

“Limiting Omnipotence discusses these concerns and issues in a language that anyone can understand, quoting freely from Scripture.” ~From back cover

DAILY?READINGS: Num. 26:52 to 27:23; Prov. 23:12-35; Luke 1:57-80

And of Benjamin he said, The beloved of the Lord shall dwell in safety by him; and the Lord shall cover him all the day long, and he shall dwell between his shoulders.  Deuteronomy 33:12

Born into a large and remarkable family, he was the baby brother to eleven fractious and strong willed men. His father undoubtedly loved him but his birth would always be associated with the loss of his adored Rachel. His only natural brother was soon betrayed and gone. Perhaps worst of all, never once did he experience his mother’s kiss or caress. But he was beloved of God. God loves the lacking. He will keep them by Him, protect them and bear them on His shoulders through all of life’s distresses and trials. —S. McEachern

So dear, so very dear to God, more dear I cannot be;
The love where with He loves the Son: such is His love to me!
—Horatius Bonar
