There is no prevenient grace, common grace, effectual grace, or any other kind of grace. There is only grace - God working in the universe, and in human lives, to reconcile all things to himself. God is never against us (even if it may feel that way sometimes), but always for us.

Just finished the book yesterday and I completely agree with Megan. I don’t think she misrepresented people. She sees through the double talk and presents the truth. For example, when Karen Swallow Prior writes an article comparing pro-life to pro-masks and vaccines it doesn’t really matter that she says in the article she’s not making a moral equivalence, because she already has. Same thing with JD Greear and others. They say one thing, but then do and say something else that confuses everyone and seems to conflict with what they said before. It’s very manipulative, which is why it’s hard to pin down. Megan is compiling all the evidence and giving her own conclusions. She’s not just cheery picking a few random things. And she’s not characterizing everyone she mentions in the book as wolves (as someone commented about Ortlund). She even says that in the introduction. Ortlund is only mentioned in one section of one chapter.

Also…I’m no journalist or author, but it seems like quoting words and phrases is common and normal. Reading any news article shows that to be the case. Quoting entire paragraphs would take up too much space if it was done for every single person she quotes. She has to summarize the entire context and overall meaning that is being expressed.

The bible is written throughout with symbolism and parables. Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do. 1 Tim 1:4 (KJV) To “rightly divide (separate) the word of truth” you must separate fact from fable, truth from tale, and principle from parable. 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. 2 Tim 4:4 (KJV) Example; When someone is tempted to do something that they know is wrong they have a little debate in their head and lie to themselves and make excuses to justify the action they want to take. Just like the story of Eve and the talking serpent. A talking serpent is a fable; 2 Tim 4:4 (KJV). A talking serpent symbolic of the lust of the flesh; is truth. We are told to seek out wisdom and knowledge throughout the bible(KJV), and contrary to the preachers and teachers deceiving statement “we can’t know (comprehend) God, the fact is we CAN know all there is that pertains to God and us, his creation. BUT Matt 13:10-11-15 (KJV). The arrogance of this generation thinking they are better than past generations, cannot grasp the full impact of said verses. When you take parables as literal you get fables. Don’t take my word for it, or any bodies for that matter. Come to the bible (KJV) with a clean slate, and with sincere want for truth, and not to consume it upon your lusts, but that you may do true worship and obedience to God, with a repentant heart, and with reason and logic the spirit of God will teach.11 … in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. Acts 17:11 (KJV) All glory to God. Amen

GOD led me to this book to answer my sincere agnostic questions about the Gospel - the first chapter had the same prayer I had prayed prior to discovering this book, so I read it in one sitting as my hungry and thirsty empty soul yearned to understand and not miss so great a salvation . And this book not only gave me sound rationale to take the Bible at face value as a historical and authentic book, but it also revealed that I had to come to terms with Jesus (either as lunatic, liar or Lord) and graciously led me through the 10 commandments to show me why I was a sinner, which invoked the convicting power of the Holy Spirit to bring me to godly sorrow and the repentance that leads to salvation. This book also helped me count the cost of following Jesus and laid bare what the Christian life involves and thus laid the foundation for me to 180 degrees turn around to follow Jesus...no looking back and 100% commitment....so this is my testimony that this Book led me to Christ in TRUTH, and I was truly born again when I prayed that prayer (with the seeds planted in my opened up heart through the earlier chapters) at the end of the book, and then I felt like telling everyone about the change of heart and burden lifted off of me that I had experienced - that day I had come to Christ in truth through this book and others who knew my stubborness about the Gospel can testify that I had a 180 degree turnaround and was saved....this book is a must for non-Christian agnostics as well as those raised in Christian homes who have drifted into agnosticism...I can only pray that God may draw more to read this book because of this critique (Philip. 1:15-18)...Bro Rev Read peace be still...may you trust in the Lord Himself Who says if He be lifted up He will draw all men to Himself (which is what this book does) - those who read this book with a sincerely open heart, will experience the convicting power of the Holy Spirit (NOT a works Gospel but laying the foundation to count the cost of following Christ) - even Apostle Paul said the Gospel was not a play of words but the power of God unto salvation (1Thess. 1:5)...and this book did for me what a tract with the sinners prayer could not do (even though I sincerely prayed many times but without true understanding of what made me a sinner)

Dispensationalism is a horrible error which came from a heretic and which makes the Bible into an unintelligible mess. Various cults follow it because they need it to explain their errors. It isn't taught in scripture, it isn't taught in the early church. Here is a test for you. The church, which is the Israel of God, started on what date? The scriptures say that this for whom Christ died so be sure and get thw date right or you will have some saints but saved.

@@RevReads Thanks. I didn't call you a heretic. You said that the church isn't called Israel directly but that's just wrong. Israel is called the church and the church is called Israel. Acts 7:38 This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us: Gal 6:15-16 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God. The whole of Ephesians 2 and 3 clears up this point. One church, one body (which now comprises all nations) etc etc. I ask all dispensationalists. 1) Why didn't the church know this until the 18th century? 2) Since Christ died for the church, which is his body, how else is anybody saved except by being "in Christ"? I will ask you directly this - when did people start being saved by Christ and when did they start being part of the church?

Author sounds like a confused mid-Acts dispy. He gets the heavenly people part fine, but just as God uses Israel in the Millennium to restore the earth, so to, He uses the BoC to reverse the effects of the unclean heavens mentioned in Job 15:15 and Job 25:5. After the GWT judgement closes, in the end as in the beginning, both are restored as one people in one kingdom on a new earth, the heavens plural are reduced to heaven singular, and access to the tree of life is bookended.

I don't know why the pre-trib rapture triggers so many people. God has already raptured several people, including Enoch, Elijah, and Jesus. If He raptured them, why would it be so hard to believe it would happen again? If people don't believe in the rapture, that's their prerogative, but they act like they're afraid dispensationalists will cheat by rapturing ourselves somehow, like we're skipping out early on a job.

WOW! You the man, my brother! I grew up in a wonderfully Gospel-centered Baptist congregation, where the Lord saved me and called me to preach, and from where I was sent off to a super Christian university. Through all that, I recall hearing the word "dispensation" used in teaching only once. When I transferred to a strong premillennialist dispensationalist Bible college, it was culture shock for me! One of the professors even asked me if I were an amillennialist (which I wasn't). In time, the Lord used that dear, patient man to put the Bible together for me. Before I graduated, I was a Ryrie Study Bible new premil dispensationalist, and am stronger in that same position by the year. Thank you for being faithful and brave enough to stand for sane dispensationalism. While others are dropping it right and left, I rejoice to hear you not wavering. Old Scofield dispensationalism has great problems which the 1967 notes corrected. And, Dr. Ryrie did even better. New premillennial dispensationalism may not be perfect; but, it answers far more questions than it leaves hanging. Bless you, my brother!

I am not much for the symbolization of the scriptures, just because an account in the scripture can be used to symbolize another message doesn't mean it should, I suppose on the spectrum I lean far to the literal interpretation of everything being literal, although not in total.

I think the example of the Passover eliminates the argument of "wasted blood." One lamb was slain for the house, the lamb's blood was put on the doorposts, there could be one person or as many would fit in the house and they were all saved. There is an unlimited amount of space in the figurative house of Salvation, one or as many will come into the house shall be saved.

I think that anyone fortunate enough to have read the entire Bible, beginning with the OT, without the presuppositions of Calvinism, knows that the Bible never teaches Calvinistic election. It just doesn’t exist in the Bible. But cue Calvinists in this comment section (should they have found their way here) with their hackneyed objections and self-congratulatory ‘humility’ and ‘giving glory only to God,’ a usual manipulatory move. Thank you, though, for a very good review. I am grabbing my own copy!

I picked up the CSB Apologetics Bible a couple weeks ago while my Thompson Chain NIV is getting re-covered. I'm highly customizing it as I usually do and it's fast becoming what might be my main Bible? Let me say what I wish it did have. - Red letter!! I'm missing this feature so much that I've taken a red artist pencil and drawing a small vertical line next to the verse number of every verse that Jesus is speaking. A red highlighter would bleed through the page too much. - A Larger Concordance. - More historical information, in charts and tables. - A couple more blank pages at the beginning or the end of the Bible - I would be especially happy if I could get this apologetics Bible in red letter and in Thompson Chain. The chain is wonderful. So to alleviate some of these desires, I'm cutting supplemental information out of other Bibles, creating tables of information in Word, pulling comparison charts from the internet, cutting them to size and inserting them in the appropriate places to look as if they were built with the Bible. It can be done using a reusable glue and no one can really tell it's not a professional job. The inserted Pages turn just like any other Bible page. I'm active in Apologetics and the articles may not go deep enough for me, so I slightly question if I should have gotten a CSB regular Study Bible just for the plethora of random facts, and leave the Apologetics study to my regular fact finding routine. In the end it may not matter, as I do like the Bible and the translation and I'm enjoying adding things to it.

There brief fly by history of the Dispensationalist history is the only thing that is OK with this book.But that is something you can get anywhere else and is not worth buying the book for. Their view of Daniel is that it was written after the fact pretending to be prophecy so they do not believe in the inspiration of Scripture and prophecy.
