Review
"Jonathan Master's Reformed Theology, is a joy to read. At once crystal clear and scripturally faithful, it covers the landscape theologically and practically without getting sidetracked in minutia or bogged down in complexity. Like the other volumes in this series, this new volume helps address many of the questions people who are new to a Reformed church often have, but Master's volume in particular should awaken readers' appetites for still more of the riches of biblical doctrine well taught. This book made me freshly grateful for the soul-nourishing, intellectually satisfying, and worship-inspiring truths of Reformed theology, and for that I am deeply grateful." --David Strain, Senior Pastor, First Presbyterian Church, Jackson, Mississippi
Dr. Jonathan Masters, in this focused and accessible volume, concisely explains, amplifies and clarifies the theology which was proclaimed and preserved in the providence of God through the travails of the Reformation. In so doing, he manifestly reveals that Reformed Theology is merely, yet profoundly, the Holy Spirit empowered return to a theology revealed through the Bible, thereby liberating God's people from the superstitions and errors of ecclesiastically enforced theological heresies and thus reaffirming Sola Scriptura - 'the Scripture alone is our only rule of faith and practice. --Harry L. Reeder III, Senior Pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Birmingham, Alabama
In this short monograph, Jonathan Master provides an adept, warm, and engaging introduction to Reformed theology. He succinctly demonstrates that the Reformed Faith is biblical Christianity. Whether you are a pastor or layperson, this is a resource you'll definitely want to get your hands on. --Jon D. Payne, Senior Pastor, Christ Church Presbyterian, Charleston, South Carolina
