Donald Macleod is the people's theologian—or at least he would be in a sane world. He never loses sight for a moment that he is addressing people who are hurting or confused or ill-informed or tempted.
...a master of making difficult things seem simple, without compromising their profundity... Macleod is simultaneously an able apologist and a world class exegete (one does not hesitate to mention his name alongside Warfield and Murray in exegetical competence). Read the book. Learn from Macleod. Argue with Macleod. And then bow the knee to your Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, and worship!
...one of the finest theologians Scotland has produced in a long time. Professor Macleod displays an originality of thought and sharp clarity of expression...
Here is excellent theology made both relevant and exciting. I can think of no better book for equipping Christians to present their faith intelligently and attractively to real people.
I have always valued Donald Macleod's writings, his great learning, his respect for those with whom he disagrees, the absence of foolish dogmatism, and the presence of a pastoral heart. Here we have first rate Christian theology, exceedingly encouraging...

Donald Macleod's A Faith to Live By is an accessible but profound introduction to some of the fundamental truths of the Christian faith. It will prove to be useful to intelligent Christians who are just beginning in their more serious study of Christian truth, as well as to teachers, ministers, and academics. This survey of Bible teaching is vintage Macleod: biblical, thoughtful, clear, and practical. Indeed, it is an important study of biblical truth by an astute evangelical theologian in the great Reformed tradition.
Donald Macleod is Principal of the Free Church College, Edinburgh. Recognized as a leading systematic theologian, he has developed this reputation by being able to explain complex thoughts with simplicity and clarity. Above Material Copyright © 2006 Christian Focus Publications |
