Are They Few that Shall Be Saved?

by B.B. Warfield

Who can be saved? Who isn’t saved? For many, the answers to these questions constitute an insurmountable objection to the goodness of God. After all, how can a loving God condemn anyone? Wouldn’t God—in his omniscient and omnipotence—choose to save everyone? Warfield’s concise monograph on the subject addresses the central issues relating to the doctrine of salvation. It includes a biblical account of election and reprobation, and comprehensively addresses what remains, for many, a nagging theological objection to Christianity.

About the author

Benjamin Breckinridge Warfield (usually known as B. B. Warfield) was professor of theology at Princeton Seminary from 1887 to 1921. Some conservative Presbyterians consider him to be the last of the great Princeton theologians before the split in 1929 that formed Westminster Seminary and the Orthodox Presbyterian Church.

Intéressant, original mais trop court vu la difficulté du sujet. Une bonne introduction à la question

[Shea Stacy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Helpful article on how passages that seem to point the smallness of the elect don't necessarily teach that.

Challenging and brief overview against an assumption that I have mostly taken for granted, but that has never quite sat too well for me
