Editorial Reviews

This is the late Dr. Bahnsen’s testament to today’s defenders of the truth. It is an encyclopedic synthesis of the thought of Cornelius Van Til, who was arguably the most original apologist of the twentieth century. In the grand tradition of the Sentences of the fathers, this study will be a standard for years to come.

William Edgar

You must have this book, if you are serious about trying to understand Van Til’s thought.

JOHN FRAME

It is most welcome . . . to have this massive volume of readings and analysis of [Van Til’s] publications by his former student and a first-rate thinker in his own right. . . . This book will be of great benefit to mature theological students who wish to engage secular and other pagan ideologies in contemporary society.

E. EARLE ELLIS SOUTHWESTERN JOURNAL OF THEOLOGY (FALL 2001)

Bahnsen does a masterful job of systematizing the central themes in Van Til’s thought and follows them with carefully selected passages from Van Til’s books, essays, syllabuses, articles, lectures and so on.
