THis is an excellent book for any Christian to read. The doctrine set forth in this is not an easy one to accept given that most religions teach that God loves everybody and that Christ died for all sinners. The Holy Bible reveals otherwise, that God does not love everyone (Jacob have I loved, Esau have I hated) and Jesus did NOT die for all sinners. Obviously, IF Jesus died for all sinners then all sinners would be saved, wouldn’t they? But the Holy Bible teaches us that not all people are saved so the idea that Jesus saved everybody is a lie. Some people water down the truth by saying that Jesus died for “the opportunity for all people” to be saved. Wrong again, Jesus knew exactly who he was going to the cross to save; those chosen before the foundation of the world and given to him by God our Father. Jesus did not go to the cross in hopes that some might believe and thereby benefit from his sacrifice. Jesus knew every one that he would save in doing so. Nothing was left to chance. This book by Mr. Clark, as well as “The reformed doctrine of Predestination” by Loraine Boettner are two of the best books to help Christians understand the truth in the Holy Bible. WE have a glorious future ahead with God and it has only just begun.

Hey Brandon;

About 190 pages, including the extensive Appendix of predestination in the OT. It is a quick read, but not too quick. There is a lot of logic, depth, and Scriptural support in this little book.

Sounds like a good read. About how many pages does it run?
