Description: Are heaven and hell real? How does God's election correspond to our freedom? Why did Jesus have to die? Why doesn't God save everybody? These are questions most believers and seekers have asked, and they are biblically answered by author David Clotfelter. Contrasting the theologies of Jonathan Edwards with George MacDonald, the author reconciles the difficult doctrines of divine judgment and predestination. Sure to be thought-and discussion-provoking message.

Excerpt: We do well to keep in mind that the person who is esteemed by God is not the one who waxes eloquent as he develops one biblical idea to the detriment of others, but the one who is humble and contrite in spirit and who "trembles" at God's word (Isa. 66:2). We may not always find it easy to reconcile the various truths of the Bible. Nevertheless, we must humbly keep in check both our desire for logical consistency and our outrage at truths we do not like. God will no doubt reward our search by giving us ever-greater insight into the relationships among the truths He has revealed about Himself. We may be quite sure that all that God does is, in fact, logical and self-consistent. But we should not presume to reject that which we have not had the patience or humility to accept on God's terms.

“Sinners in the Hands of a Good God is a wonderfully clear, readable, understandable study of the sovereignty of God and the problem of evil. David Clotfelter powerfully expounds the biblical doctrines of sin and grace—something desperately needed in a generation when both concepts have become terribly vague and confused in most people’s minds.”
—John MacArthur

“One of the most winsome, discerning and compelling presentations of the seriousness of sin and the grace of God. It is among the few potentially life-changing books—to believe it and live a careless Christian life should be an impossibility.”
—Iain H. Murray

"For those struggling with the doctrine of hell, Sinners in the Hands of a Good God would be, I think, my first recommendation—in part because it’s not a book on hell. It is, but it’s much more than that. It’s a book on God’s justice. And God’s mercy. It’s a book on salvation and judgment, heaven and hell, election and choice. It answers why Jesus had to die and why he didn’t save everyone. Clotfelter rightly sees that you can’t answer any of these questions in isolation from the whole storyline of Scripture and the whole tapestry of faith. It’s also written with a winsome, pastoral spirit, even including prayers at the end of each chapter."
—Justin Taylor
