The Controversy Over...

Ronald Nash, professor at Reformed Theological Seminary has written a great text for the average Protestant Christian. Whether one is a liberal, conservative, or moderate, Nash's book is worth the look. Nash has always been known as a conservative, but this is not to be confused with a fundamentalist. Some of Nash's positions, are just down right balanced and Bibilcal. Often, the devil is found in the poloarizing extremes while the truth is often scewed by other's agendas. Nash tackels the hard issues of out current Christian and sociological mess. His dealings with issues such as divorce is careful and pastoral. His discussion of "Lordship Salvation" addresses the Protestant debate in proper catagories and aviods the "name calling" that so often accompies this issue. Lastly, his chapter on the "end-times" is much needed in today's speculative end-times by the headlines, that is so prevelant in Evangelical circles.He writes on 10 topics in all. It is easy to read, yet very interesting and somewhat refreshing with pastoral and philosophical depth.
