a solid reference volume

This is an excellent presentation of the doctrine of salvation and of the complimentary doctrines of sin, and the Savior. According to the author, all three should be viewed together as a comprehensive whole in order to arrive at a proper understanding of our salvation, since they are intimately related to each other throughout the scriptures.Written from a dispensational point of view, Lightner lays everything out in easy to understand terms, and in a format that is easily accessible when used as a reference. He covers all the bases and does include brief commentary on some controversial issues such as Lordship salvation, and eternal security. He is courteous in his writing and although he does mention some particular individuals by name, he is careful not to engage in reckless polemic.You will find his writing clear, well organized, and refreshing. Written in non-technical terms, and geared to the general reader, "Sin, the Savior, and Salvation" is a solid reference volume and I highly recommend it.
