'The teaching of sovereign grace literally stretches from cover to cover in the Bible.' So writes Dr. Steven J. Lawson at the outset of this authoritative survey of the Scriptures. With the skill of an accomplished expositor, Dr. Lawson lets the biblical writers speak for themselves. Each one clearly proclaims the doctrines of grace. The Long Line starts here. From the lawgiver Moses to the apostle John, and from the early church fathers to modern defenders of the faith, there has marched onto the stage of human history a long line of godly men, a triumphant parade of spiritual stalwarts who have upheld the doctrines of grace. In this book, the first in the five-volume Long Line of Godly Men series, Dr. Steven J. Lawson takes readers on a heart-stirring journey through the Scriptures to show that the Bible in its entirety teaches the doctrines of grace. Steve Lawson is the senior pastor of Christ Fellowship Baptist Church in Mobile, Alabama. Dr. Lawson serves on the board of directors of The Master's College and on the ministerial board for Reformed Theological Seminary, and teaches with Dr. John MacArthur at the Expositor's Institute. In addition, Dr. Lawson has written twelve books, including Faith Under Fire, Made in Our Image, and Famine in the Land: A Passionate Call for Expository Preaching. He and his wife, Anne, have four children: Andrew, James, Grace Anne, and John. |
