Prevenient Grace

Opis

Evangelical Christian theology owes much to Jacobus Arminius’s doctrine of prevenient grace-the idea that God enables fallen human beings to perceive the truth of the gospel and respond to it, despite their fallenness. This conviction moves Christians to engage in evangelism and foreign missions, confident that the Holy Spirit can prompt anyone to repent of their sins and begin following Christ.

Heretofore, no one has attempted to give us a well-researched, well-reasoned account of how this doctrine arose and stood the test of time. But now Dr. Brian Shelton of Toccoa Falls College has filled this need, mapping a masterful survey of the doctrine in his new book, Prevenient Grace.

Dr. Shelton shows how this concept has been articulated by Christian thinkers from the early church councils to classrooms of the twenty-first century. He focuses on key biblical texts that are the source of this concept. The result is a balanced case for prevenient grace that is being praised by Christian leaders of every background in North America.
