This book compares in value with the book on “Dispensational Truth.” Its purpose is to “Rightly Divide” the “Fundamental Doctrines” in a series of “Contrasts,” as “Law and Grace,” “Faith and Works,” " Sin and Salvation," "Atonement and Redemption," etc. It has been described as one of the "most enlightening book on scripture ever written."

Clarence Larkin is one of my favorite bibilical scholars. He pulls the bibilical doctrines out and puts them in this book for easy understanding. He doesn't give his opinions but lets the Holy Spirit guide him in revealing the Truths.

Not scholarly, but still a tightly written, tightly-reasoned case for classic dispensationalism. Surprisingly compelling even though it's wrong.

Clarence Larkin’s classic study of the fundamental doctrines of the faith. Every statement is supported by Scripture and, in many cases, the entire supporting text is quoted.

Gives a new perspective on understanding the Word of God.
Must read for all who want to get a better understanding of the Fundamental Doctrines of Christianity. Definitely a re-read.

Another Clarence Larkin must read.
A recommended "primer" for Larkin's Dispensational Truth.
