Reformed Confessions Harmonized

Written a century ago, Bavinck's stately theology of "the last things"-from death to the parousia-offers sound exegetical guidance.

Joel R. Beeke is pastor of Heritage Netherlands Reformed Congregation in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and professor of systematic theology and homiletics at Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary. Sinclair B. Ferguson, former professor at Westminster Theological Seminary, is now the minister of St. George's-Tron parish in Glasgow, Scotland, and the author of numerous books on Reformed theology.
