Jay Edward Adams is a Reformed Christian author. He has written over 100 books and these have been published in sixteen languages. He received a Bachelor of Divinity from Reformed Episcopal Seminary, a Bachelor of Arts in Classics from Johns Hopkins University,a Masters in Sacred Theology from Temple University, and a PhD in Speech from the University of Missouri. Adams' book Competent to Counsel launched the nouthetic counseling movement, a movement whose aim was to use strictly biblical counseling methods. He is the founder of the Intitute for Nothetic Studies.
Anyone who cares about what the Bible says on the subject of the Lord's Day/Sabbath should read Adams' book. His view does depart from the Westminster Confession because he does not see Sunday as the Christian Sabbath, but his view, similar to John MacArthur's, is biblically sound nonetheless.
