This book presents a Baptist articulation of the Doctrines of Grace. As the title indicates, however, the theological concerns addressed here go far beyond the traditional 'five points' of Calvinism. The Doctrines of Grace are interrelated with the supremacy of God and a concern for the glory of God in all things. They preserve conservative doctrine because they alone provide the fullest, most consistent manifestations of every aspect of Christian truth. The authors provide a cogent defense of those doctrines from Scripture, theology, and Baptist history. Along the way, they demonstrate the truth, goodness and beauty of those doctrines and show that the Baptist brand of Calvinism blends hearts hot for holiness, minds zealous for truth, spirits submissive to God's providence, feet and mouths engaged in proclaiming God's grace to peoples from all nations, and lives that find their meaning in being consumed to the glory of God. The authors urge Baptists everywhere not to grow slack in the proclamation and distribution of gospel truth.
