Description:... The Reformed Doctrine of Predestination, written by Loraine Boettner, is a theological treatise that explores the concept of predestination from a Reformed perspective. Boettner argues that predestination is a biblical doctrine that is central to the Christian faith, and he provides a thorough analysis of the biblical passages that support this view.Boettner examines the historical development of the doctrine of predestination, tracing its roots back to Augustine and Calvin. He then presents a detailed explanation of the Reformed understanding of predestination, which holds that God has chosen certain individuals for salvation and others for damnation based solely on his sovereign will.The book also addresses objections to the doctrine of predestination, including the charge that it is unfair or that it undermines human free will. Boettner responds to these objections by showing that predestination is consistent with both God's justice and human responsibility.Overall, The Reformed Doctrine of Predestination is a comprehensive and scholarly exploration of a controversial theological topic that continues to be debated by Christians today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
