Advance Praise
“A massive product of exact and
well-informed scholarship . . . with landmark significance. . . . I give
this book top marks for its range of solid scholarship, cogency of
argument, warmth of style, and zeal for the true glory of God. I
recommend it most highly.”
—J. I. Packer, Board of Governors' Professor of Theology, Regent College
“I
cannot imagine that this book could have been published twenty-five
years ago: there were not at that time enough well-informed theologians
working in the Reformed heritage to produce a volume of such clarity and
competence. Whatever side you hold in this debate, henceforth you dare
not venture into the discussion without thoughtfully reading this book,
which, mercifully, makes argument by stereotype and reductionism a great
deal more difficult. Above all, this book will elicit adoration as its
readers ponder afresh what Jesus achieved on the cross.”
—D. A. Carson, Research Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School
“The
topic is worthy enough. Yet the lineup of contributors to this volume
makes this, in my view, the most impressive defense of definite
atonement in over a century. Beyond rehearsing traditional arguments,
first-rate historical, biblical, and systematic theologians bring fresh
angles and exegesis to bear. From Heaven He Came and Sought Her is a gift that will no doubt keep on giving for generations to come.”
—Michael Horton, J. Gresham Machen Professor of Systematic Theology and Apologetics, Westminster Seminary California; author, Pilgrim Theology
“This is the definitive study. It is careful, comprehensive, deep, pastoral, and thoroughly persuasive.”
—David F. Wells, Distinguished Senior Research Professor, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary
