Good book that, contrary to the title, has to do with far more than worship but extends to the very foundation of ecclesiology. Waldron argues for the Regulative Principle and shows that it is not merely the Regulative Principle of Worship but extends to all the formal actions and structures of the continue reading…
A difficult book to review. There are three primary aspects from which to consider this book: its presentation of the Dispensational hermeneutic, its defense of the Dispensational hermeneutic, and its presentation & critique of other approaches. Regarding the first, this book is invaluable. Here in a concise volume is a continue reading…
An excellent, though at times difficult, book on the Lord’s Supper as more than a memorial meal. Barcellos examines the biblical statements that require us to confess the Supper as a means of grace. It is beneficial to take note of Barcellos’ statement that the book is intended primarily to continue reading…
Hendriksen does an excellent job presenting the Scriptural data on the questions he asks concerning the present & future expectation of Israel. He shows that, while many claims are made that prophecy has recently been/is being fulfilled by the modern State of Israel, there is simply no biblical weight to continue reading…
A very good warning of the hermeneutical decline that has been ongoing since the days of Spurgeon but which is being increasingly embraced by many (if not most) conservative churches in the English-speaking world. It briefly covers specific errors of the modern hermeneutic and then provides some counter methods along continue reading…

A great little book on basic ecclesiology. While there is certainly much more that needs to be said on ecclesiology, this book is a great introduction to the topic or a good book for those who won’t/can’t read a heavier treatment of the subject. It is not without a few continue reading…
A great sequel to The End Times Made Simple, this book focuses mostly on peripheral questions rather than on what are the big picture questions of eschatology. It is, therefore, a fantastic resource for someone who wants to go beyond asking “when is the rapture” and “what and when is continue reading…
I found this book both frustrating and very helpful. My frustrations with it mostly come from my expectations of the book, based on the title. I had no idea before reading it what was intended by “a man as priest.” My first thoughts were that this was somehow colliding with continue reading…
In Not as a Thief: A Historic Premillennial Perspective on the Rapture, Kimbro does an excellent job demonstrating the utter lack of biblical evidence for a pre-tribulational rapture. He focuses on the timing of the rapture (as the title emphasizes) rather than the millennium, making this an excellent book no continue reading…
