Synopsis

The Death of Death in the Death of Christ is a polemical work, designed to show, among other things, that the doctrine of universal redemption is unscriptural and destructive to the gospel. Those who see no need for doctrinal exactness and have no time for theological debates which show up divisions between evangelicals may well regret its reappearance. Some may find the very sound of Owen’s thesis so shocking that they will refuse to read his book at all. It is to those who share this readiness that Owen’s treatise is offered, in the belief that it will help us in one of the most urgent tasks facing evangelical Christendom today—the recovery of the gospel.

How does one even begin to review a book that exhausts a single subject to the point of no returning to the traditions one once held to?

DBU was built on a massive hill overlooking Mountain Creek Lake in southwest Dallas. The campus was gorgeous- Edenic even. But that hill made getting around a chore. In the spring of 2017, I lived in an apartment at the bottom of it, so I did my best to avoid the climb. I stacked all my classes onto......more

A thorough and in-depth look at the efficacy and sufficiency of the death of Christ. Owen uses a deep knowledge of Scripture to evaluate the arguments of universalism and other false teachings regarding the death of Christ. Well worth the effort required in order to read through this book.......more
