"Forlines does a masterful job of defining and defending from Scripture what he calls 'Classical Arminianism.' This text is a 'must' read for scholars, pastors, students, and laymen of every spiritual heritage who have an interest in the Arminian approach to faith."
William F. Davidson Professor of Church History Columbia Biblical Seminary, South Carolina
"E Leroy Forlines offers a studied, reflective yet accessible overview of systematic theology and its implications for the transformation of the entire person. In the context of fair discussions of both Calvinism and post-
modernism, he offers a contemporary yet historic interpretation of Classical or Reformed Arminianism. Anyone interested in understanding a present-day Arminian view of .systematic theology will want to smdy carefiilly the work." -
Douglas Simpson Dean and Professor of Education University of Louisville, Kentucky
"Writing against the background of the shift to post-modernism in today's world, he covers several of the fundamental themes of theology. However, his primary focus is on salvation, justification, sanctification, perseverance and election, and he develops at greater length the approach already taken in his commentary on Romans. The result is a careful defense of a model in which God works to achieve salvation in human beings by 'influence and response' rather than by 'cause and effect,' a view which commends itself as doing better justice to the concept of a personal God entering into relationships with human beings as persons."
I. Howard Marshall Emeritus Professor of New Testament Exegesis and Honorary Research Professor University of Aberdeen, Scotland
"Seldom in a lifetime can one produce such a comprehensive manuscript that exceeds any previous work. Leroy Forlines has done just that in this book. He answers ably the who of life, the w^ of direction, and the tvhere of one's destiny" !
