Synopsis

Grace Is Too Precious a Doctrine to Settle for Vague GeneralitiesGrace―a doctrine central to the gospel―ought to be clearly defined so it can be celebrated, relished, and consistently defended.In this book, Kevin DeYoung leads us back to the Canons of Dort, a seventeenth-century document originally written to precisely and faithfully define this precious doctrine.The Canons of Dort stand as a faithful witness to the precise nature of God’s supernatural, sovereign, redeeming, resurrecting grace―when so many people settle for vague generalities that water down the truth.In three concise sections―covering history, theology, and practical application― DeYoung explores what led to the Canons and why they were needed, the five important doctrines that they explain, and Dort’s place in the Christian faith today.

Goodreads review by Greta on January 07, 2022

I loved this short, but fairly thorough overview of the 5 Doctrinal Statements. I thought DeYoung did a great job of providing the original material and then explaining it in a way that was more understandable. I also really appreciated how he gave the conflicting and contrasting sides of the argume......more

Goodreads review by John Rakshith on April 29, 2019

Perhaps the best modern accessible read on the refutation of a false gospel so close to the Protestant Reformation in the Synod of Dort! Kevin DeYoung sets forth to and achieves his commitment in defining and defending grace with logical clarity, biblical cohesiveness, and modern language. An edifyi......more
