For many years Paul Wells has been a highly respected theologian and Bible teacher, especially in the French-speaking world. He is adjunct dean of the Faculté Jean Calvin in Aix-en-Provence and editor of La Revue réformée.
This excellent book is a distillation of a lifetime of study and teaching and provides a comprehensive presentation of the doctrine of Scripture. Dr. Wells leads us through potentially complex theological questions in a clear and easy to read style using a wide range of illustrations. Subjects considered include revelation, inspiration, authority, Christ-centredness, illumination, and Word and Spirit. It would have been helpful to have a subject index.
