The Bond of Grace and Duty: In the Soteriology of John Owen

Philip Craig’s analysis shows very clearly what was at issue here, and how completely and crushingly, without naming names, Owen outflanks and undercuts this widespread Puritan form of easy-believism. It is a thorough, painstaking and definitive piece of work that carries more of a message for the church of our time than doctoral theses usually do. What a privilege it is to introduce and commend such a worth-while book as this. — J.I. Packer
