A Substantive Yet Easy Read!By sbdI am a James Montgomery Boice fan! I have always appreciated his scholarship and Christian integrity. I also appreciate the fact that his writing - and his preaching - is never an opportunity to showcase three+ syllable words. Mr. Boice's language makes any of his sermons and any of his books available to anyone who hungers to grow in Christian truth!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Review of Foundations of the Christian FaithBy James R. Carmichael, Jr.I ordered this work for our students in Haiti because it is so accessible and readable, which these students desperately need. Dr. Boice did us all a favor when he left us this work. For the beginner to Reformed Theology, this is a must.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Very helpfulBy Victoria JacotLove the easy depth of it! [Read by Jim Denison] In this revised edition of a formerly four-volume work, James Boice provides a readable overview of all the major doctrines of Christian theology in one volume. Boice carefully opens the topics like the nature of God, the character of his natural and special revelation, the fall, and the person and work of Christ with scholarly rigor and a pastor's heart.The text then covers the work of the holy spirit in justification and sanctification, and closes with careful discussion of ecclesiology and eschatology.Throughout the book, Boice maintains a remarkable practicality and thoroughness that will benefit both students and pastors alike, and will make The Foundations of the Christian Faith a standard reference and text for years to come. About the AuthorJames Montgomery Boice (1938-2000) was, until his death, the pastor of Tenth Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia, the teacher on The Bible Study Hour radio program, and chair of the board of City Center Academy. He held a BD from Princeton Theological Seminary and a doctor of theology from the University of Basel in Switzerland. In addition to authoring numerous journal articles, he was a consulting editor for the Expositor's Bible Commentary. His books and commentaries include Foundations of God's City and the five-volume work The Gospel of John.

It was lost in the Christian bookstore, somewhere between the self-help section and the aisle full of Jesus merchandise. It was lost in the church study, when the minister decided to give his people what they wanted rather than what they needed. It is a great reminder of what God has done for us, and how much of modern Evangelicalism is Arminianism, and even leans towards Pelagianism. The truth is exactly the opposite, namely, that the doctrines of grace establish the most solid foundation and provide the most enduring motivation for the most effective proclamation of the gospel. The title might suggest that this book is about grace or the evangelical teaching of the gospel. Quick view. In the chapter on Perseverance of the Saints, the authors give their understandings of passages such as Heb p. I would only recommend to those firmly rooted in their own beliefs about salvation and God's sovereignty. Reading this book feels like a nice morsel of the 'solid food' mentioned in Hebrews.

  • A Complete Introduction to the Tenets of Christianity in One Systematic Volume, James Montgomery Boice Provides a Readable Overview of Christian Theology
    THEOLOGY AND HISTORY A Complete Introduction to the Tenets of Christianity In one systematic volume, James Montgomery Boice provides a readable overview of Christian theology. Both students and pastors will benefit from this rich source that covers all the major doctrines of Christianity. With scholarly rigor and a pastor’s heart, Boice carefully opens the topics of the nature of God, the character of his natural and special revelation, the fall, and the person and work of Christ. He then goes on to consider the work of the Holy Spirit in justification and sancti- fication. The book closes with careful discussion of ecclesiology and eschatology. This updated edition includes a foreword by Philip Ryken and a section-by-section study guide. Both those long familiar with Boice and those newly introduced to him will benefit from his remarkable practicality and thoroughness, which will continue to make this a standard reference for years to come. “This classic overview of Christian faith is a masterful balance of often opposing qualities. It is simultaneously comprehensive yet readable. It is accessible for serious believers, seeking college students, and newcomers to the faith. It is warmly pastoral yet theologically rich. This monumental harvest of Dr. Boice’s ministry belongs in every serious Christian’s study.” —PETER A. LILLBACK Westminster Theological Seminary INTRODUCTORY JANUARY 2019 “Over the course of the forty years or so since it was first published, 790 pages, hardcover, 978-0-8308-5214-7, $50.00, W this book by James Montgomery
