    Great list! Thanks for taking the time to do this Nathan. I actually had this same idea myself but never got around to it – you have done a fantastic job. I have a friend who is interested in Calvinism but not entirely sure about it – this will be a great resource I can share with him.

    Thanks, Albert Shepherd The Aspiring Theologian

    I would like an electronic copy of this as well if you have one. It is hard to copy from your site (i can do it if you do not already have it in a user friendly format), please email it to me at the email I included in this posting. Thank you for your hard work. This will assist me in my ordination exams. Coram Deo!

    Well done. I do believe, however, that you should remove all of your references to the Book of Job.

    As you may recall, the story of Job is that some terrible things happen to him, and he is left with his well-meaning religious friends to try to figure it out. They give some fine-sounding arguments, but in the end God said they didn’t know what they were talking about.

    So to quote such discredited sources as Eliphaz the Temanite is to do yourself a disservice. Your work stands well without Job.

    Greg,

    I do see your point, but I think that Eliphaz and the others had a great deal of insight into the sovereign power of God, but they erred in not carrying it far enough. This, because they thought that God was somehow bound to reward the “righteous” and punish the wicked with temporal circumstances in this physical life. So quoting them to say that God is in fact sovereign is not to cite them on the point for which God later rebuked them. I also believe that the analogy of faith may be operative here: the things they said that are borne out by other scriptures must themselves be true.

    Of course, I agree that the scriptural testimony is sufficiently clear that the list could stand without any references from Job. If you want to make use of the list, feel free to do so with a modified, Job-free, redaction.

    Update: For any e-sword users, Andrew Groves has made both the Doctrines of Grace and Dispensationalism scripture lists into .top files for use on e-sword. With them, you can read the lists in multiple versions, etc. If interested, let me know, and I’ll get the file to you.

    Could you post the URL for the e-Sword topical files for other people to obtain.

    Jonathon,

    I don’t think there’s a URL, I just have the files I can e-mail. If I’m wrong, and they are on the internet somewhere, let me know and I’ll post the link.
