Dr.
Richard Mouw, president of Fuller Theological Seminary, presented this
material
originally in the Stob Lecture series at Calvin College and
Seminary.
Revised for publication, this volume includes an additional
chapter
on "infralapsarian and "supralapsarian." Dealing as he does with
theological
concepts, Dr. Mouw puts his message in language which is clear
and
interesting. The preface sets a friendly tone to the book although it
deals
with profound concepts.
In
these lectures Dr. Mouw looks at the arguments between those who accept
common
grace and those who insist upon the antithesis between the church and
the
world. These differences present problems. Written in short lectures,
the
reader is assisted in thinking through the issues presented. Some of the
ideas
being circulated in the light of the recent tragic events in this
country,
with Dr. Mouw's clarity and insight, make this book one which we
should
all read. The messages are scholarly, clear, warm, and timely
