[Douglas Domer · Rating 3 out of 5]

A good overview of promises found in the Bible. Mr. Lockyer followed after CI Schofield which I find troubling. He could have used much better sources in my opinion. I won't be re-reading this book, but I might find it helpful for resources. The subject index at the back was weak but the scripture index seems to be better.

More of a reference book. Great for that use but don’t read on its own.
