Christian Focus

Why another book on predestination and election? Because people still struggle with these great biblical doctrines. Why a book by Cornel Venema on the subject? Because he is one of the clearest and simplest systematic theologians today. Why read this book rather than an older one? Because Venema applies old texts and old doctrines to contemporary questions.

Vigilant in explanation and polemic, Venema serves up the classic Reformed doctrine of predestination for a new generation of readers.
