Particular Grace: A Defense of God's Sovereignty in Salvation

by Abraham Kuyper

Originally published in Dutch at the end of the nineteenth century, this explanation and development of the gospel of salvation by the grace of God in Jesus Christ emphasizes that grace is limited by election. God saves and blesses only those whom he has chosen from eternity. Salvation is certain for it is solely the word of God. "“The Reformed Free Publishing Association has accomplished a breakthrough. For the first time, with the possible exception of Kuyper’'s work on the Holy Spirit, the Kuyper of sound Reformed doctrine and church reformation is presented to the English reading public…..." "The book is biblical, deliberately and pervasively so…..." "The book is controversial. It was controversial when it was written. It is still controversial in Reformed churches..." By no means is the book only controversy. There is lively, warm explanation and development of the glorious gospel of salvation by the grace of God in Jesus Christ. Kuyper is fresh. Kuyper is fervent. Kuyper storms the heart of the believer.

[Nolan Fox · Rating 5 out of 5]

You gotta respect a guy who was a prime minister and wrote a book defending Calvinism. He definitely did not waste his life in the John Piper sense of the word.
