Reading this book is a fantastic way to refresh and sharpen our minds on what we believe, and why we actually believe it. Rev. Hoeksema really emphasizes the importance of knowing what is right and wrong on topics like church order and governance, common and particular grace, and being spiritually resilient and steadfast in our faith through controversy and schism. Knowledge of how men handled these things in the past and where they went wrong is a very valuable tool for us today as we strive to uphold God's truth in the church.

It is helpful to keep in mind, when reading this section, that defending the truth of God against errors that are maintained about Him has never been something optional for God’s church, or merely an academic exercise.

So, a generation or two removed from this history, we can recognize that what we are learning, He specifically brought to pass for our growth in knowing and loving Him.
On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the PRC, the Reformed Free Publishing Association has published the 3rd edition of this book, first published in 1936. This has given opportunity for me, a Protestant Reformed believer, to once again read about the events that directly effected the lives of my grandparents, parents, my wife and I, and our children. What were the issues from Rev. Hoeksema’s perspective? In what ways does Herman Hoeksema speak to me who was born 4 years after Hoeksema had already been brought to heaven? Are there things I can learn from this that are relevant today?
Bavinck’s work on psychology is a breath of fresh air in a day and age when God is often ignored, and man is often considered to be the center of this subject. These articles not only serve the church in their understanding of psychology, but they also contain a missionary emphasis for the lost world that shows them their great need to be made whole in Jesus Christ as they come to a true understanding of themselves. Bavinck recaptures the psychological wealth within the Scriptures, writing in an interesting, concise, and readable manner.
