Arthur W. Pink---Predestination

Richard P. Belcher

 

            Most pastors and laymen who have read any of the writings of A. W. Pink know that a central plank of his theological system was the doctrine of predestination.  From the early pages of his first book through the final pages of his last book, Pink never evaded the issue nor minced words as he spoke and wrote on the subject. In his day and age, when the doctrine of predestination was hated  by many, he spoke through his pen.  Now in a day and age when the subject is more acceptable, he continues to speak through his pen, and is a large part of the reason for the revival of what is known as the doctrines of grace.

            Dr. Belcher in this work tabulates and systematizes Pink's view of predestination. Beginning with Pink's general definition of predestination as a foundation, Dr. Belcher then sets forth Pink's strong views of election and reprobation.  This work closes with a comparison of Pink's view with the Philadelphia Baptist Confession of Faith, followed by an analysis and critique by Dr. Belcher of some of Pink's views in the minor areas of this doctrine.

RICHARD P. BELCHER holds degrees from Wheaton College, Covenant Seminary, and a Th.D from Concordia Seminary in St. Louis. He has fifty-five plus years of ministry experience, and he taught for twenty-nine years at a Christian University. He has numerous other books, including a number of theological novels whereby he teaches theology through the means of interesting and intriguing stories (see www.richbarrypress.com).  He is still active in ministry, but now lives in Fort Mill, SC.

 

 

NEW JOURNEY BOOK NOW READY!!!

 

A Journey in Dispensationalism

A Theological Novel

 Theology sometimes can be very difficult to study, but it even becomes worse, when a student possesses a bad attitude about the subject!  So what is Ira Pointer to do, when he is asked at his seminary to teach a private study with a young man who has a rotten attitude about it all, and the subject, as assigned by his advisor, is a view of a theology that he is very militant to defend. Such is the problem that Ira meets---a study with a recalcitrant student to teach him not only the questions concerning dispensationalism, but also a conciliatory attitude on the subject of prophecy, lest he graduate from seminary and tear a church or two apart over the teaching and defense of his favorite subject of dispensationalism, just because of a rotten attitude.

 But then in the process of the course, the young man becomes a mystery, as Ira is kidnapped, beaten, stalked and threatened by someone, and he doesn't know who his assailant is.  Could it be that the very student he is trying to teach and help is his tormentor?  And why would someone carry on such a vendetta against Ira?  Thus, it takes all the energy and thoughts of both Ira and Dink to seek to solve this mystery, and when they do, they are totally shocked as to who was behind it all and why! 

 DR. RICHARD P. BELCHER has been in active ministry from the time he graduated from high school in the early fifties.  He has pastored, taught in a Christian University, and still travels ministering the Word of God in various places.  He is the author of a number of books in the field of Bible study, theology, language, and biography, as well as this present series of theological novels.

A Journey in Heresy

A Theological Novel

 

What is one supposed to do when he teaches in a Christian seminary, which is about to be invaded by clear and undeniable heresy?  Yet, the one who is bearing the heresy is a powerful preacher and personality, who most all think is sound in doctrine, because he is a great evangelist, who can get so many “decisions” for Christ!  This is the dilemma of Ira and Dink, as they try to open the eyes of others to the danger of this man and his doctrine.  Dink even faces a group of the board of trustees of the seminary, who are meeting behind the scenes, to seek to fire Dink from his position at the school, so they can hire this man, who seems to be so sound in doctrine but is not.

 

Follow Ira and Dink, as they face this new challenge of seeking to alert others of false doctrine, when the Christians of the day, and even the preachers around them, seem more concerned and enlightened about getting decisions and numbers and large crowds, than they are about truth and doctrine.
