Excellent service; excellent book! Thanks
It is a very good book of doctrine. It s biblical and very clear. It is a fantastic book and a good reading.
This is the best book that I have found in my extensive reading to give to someone who wants to learn the Reformed faith. Over the past few years, I think I have bought and given away nearly a dozen of these. In simply, 1-page chapters, the author covers the whole of systematic theology in a brief but comprehensive manner. Nearly all issues of importance are addressed and the Reformed and Protestant Reformed position convincingly argued from Scripture. My wife and I read one chapter (1 page) a day as devotions for a time, which was an excellent project considering we had only just become Protestant Reformed theologically. The only topic which I consider "missing" is one on psalm singing, which is a topic of great interest to those investigating the Reformed faith and practice. It also serves well as a quick reference tool.
This book meets a need. For many, doctrine is a confusing issue, which they may want to know more about, but they are intimidated by weighty volumes on ''Systematic Theology.'' Others question the value of doctrine for the Church at all. Sadly, there is widespread ignorance about Christian teachings today in the Church as well as in the world. How many church-goers understand or could explain to others such fundamental teachings as the Trinity, Justification by Faith, or Regeneration (the new birth)? How can I answer the questions that the young people or children may have, without ''talking over their heads?'' Here is an attractive hardback book of less than 350 pages that could be placed in the hands of Christians of all ages and intellectual abilities. Rev. Ron Hanko, who pastored a church in Ballymena, N. Ireland, for eight years until 2001, subscribes to the Heidelberg Catechism, the Belgic Confession and the Canons of Dordt, and his writings are therefore in accordance with these great Reformation creeds. This is the cream of historic Protestantism?the Reformed view of Scripture, of the Person and work of Christ, of the Church (its nature, government and sacraments) and the End Times, to name but a few of the some 200+ doctrinal points covered. Probably the best aspect of this book is the simple and pastoral style in which the material is presented. Rev. Hanko limits himself to about one and a half pages for each doctrinal point in order to reach every member of the Church, from the young and unlearned to the more seasoned theologians. Yet, there is no ''dumbing down'' or ''watering'' of the truth. Every doctrine is clearly explained and proved from Scripture, and the reader is shown how all the aspects of God's truth are interrelated. The book is indeed saturated with (KJV) Scripture quotations. The author has managed to convey deep doctrine in a warm and attractive style, so that in learning doctrine the Christian will come more to love Christ who is at the heart of all sound doctrine.
Although we live practically on the other side of the globe, this book came in our hands by the grace of God and its wonderful ways. "Doctrine according to Godliness" contains all the wonderful truths of Scripture and God's will for our lives. It is an easy-to-read, even for us whose home-language is Afrikans and not English. The short, to-the-point summaries of almost all the issues part of our Christian lives, are inspirational. We wish to have a translation of this book available in our language soon so that it can continue to enrich the lives of God's people, also here in Africa. No sincere and true child of God who pray to know God in his/her live, will ever be sorry to own this book.
