I have heard of this book and would consider it a worthy read. The charismatics/Pentecostals have been promoting this idea of NT prophets being fallible for years. They argue it out of necessity since all their prophets are rather hit and miss.

Read it on ccel.org. They have it in multiple formats, and the footnotes and scripture references are easily accessible in the free HTML version.

Thank you for that recommendation.

I found it there as the free HTML version with the table of contents set up as dynamic links.

The site also has it in PDF which I was able to download for free as well.

And it even has the whole work recorded as free mp3 audio files. I wish I could find these as a single downloadable zip, but even if I have to download them all one at a time I can’t complain. Wow. Great resource.

I realize we have had some heated discussions related to Calvinism in the past. I appreciate you sharing these valuable resources. Perhaps reading and listening will give me a new perspective.

“I realize we have had some heated discussions related to Calvinism in the past.”


I have no recollection of this, but every discussion on Calvinism is a heated one, so don’t worry about it brother. Make sure to read Calvin in order. Book 1 has valuable teaching that is not to be missed.

Agreed. I think it was heated but not in the sense of being ungodly.

Anyway, I was going to say that your being so helpful proves you could not be all bad... but without a better understanding of Calvin on total depravity I was worried that might be viewed as doctrinal error.

:-)

So thanks. I will try to spend some time studying these over the upcoming holidays.
