This is one of the best systematic theology sets that one can find!
Great resource and a go-to item for any doctrinal or scriptural question. A real treasure for any Reformed library.
There are some meals when I think about them I start getting REALLY hungry all of a sudden. For me, it is the same with some, with a very select few, books. In fact, perhaps with only 2 books. And this, this is one of them. Thinking about it makes me want to read it again. NOW. I love the Protestant Reformed Churches (PRC) and consider myself Protestant Reformed because by God's grace they are at the very pinnacle of the development of God's truth as He has revealed it to His Church in Scripture. Building upon 2000 years of doctrinal development, they have paid dearly even in the last 100 years for their convictions. Today, for their faithfulness to God's truth, they are outcast even in the conservative Reformed community, slanderously labeled "hyper-Calvinists". This book by one of the founding fathers of the PRC is perhaps the best summary of all this doctrinal development. Using the classical systematic division of theology, the author summarizes all the major established doctrines and then appropriately devotes much attention to explaining, proving and defending the further development of these doctrines by the Reformed tradition in general and the PRC specifically. These latter are especially for topics such as the image of God, the decrees of God (supralapsarianism, reprobation), grace and baptism. All of this is written not in an abstract, scholastic manner, but in an air that breathes forth the fear and awe of a sovereign, omnipotent, holy, inscrutable God. This book shows that true doctrine exalts God and abases man, completely, without compromise. Unlike most other systematic theologies, even Reformed ones, this book is unashamed in its perusal of logically harmonizing all of Scripture, which of course is the whole point of SYSTEMATIC theology, and which is nothing else than that most fundamental of hermeneutical principles, Scripture interprets Scripture. The result is a huge canvas, composed of many different threads and colors, which however give a picture that is most beautiful, wholesome and fitting, without contradictory parts. Anyone who loves Scripture and the God of Scripture will find this book a treasure chest. After reading this book, or if using it as a reference (or better, both), the Scriptures will become much clear to the reader. Only complaint, I wish the author had covered even more topics than the multitude he already covered!
