Many in the church seek unity by glossing over major theological differences. Lutzer confronts those differences head-on, seeking to give you a clear understanding of why they exist. His non-combative look at infant baptism, sacraments, the worship of Mary, eternal security, and other divisive issues will help you formulate a fresh biblical perspective on historic doctrines. 247 pages, softcover from Kregel.

Dr. Lutzer has done an outstanding job at compling a text that is full of historical and biblical information that allows the reader to become informed about the many disputes that seperate "Christians" today. He does a good job of presenting all sides, and he always accurately portrays the views that leading theologians have held. I wholeheartedly recommend this book.

I could not put down this book until I finished it. Dr. Lutzer is a great expositor, and that's my style.

Among the best popular level views of various church doctrines. The author is a Protestant Calvinist, but does a good job representing differing viewpoints. Highly recommended as a brief overview of the historical development of various doctrines.
