The historic development of the theology of Herman Hoeksema presented as a biography by Dr.Patrick Baskwell. Theology Professor at ST. Petersburg Theological Seminary - 334 pages paperback
The author states that the reason he writes these remembrances is that Herman Hoeksema was a great man. He was a great man of God on behalf of the Protestant Reformed Churches. He was a great man of God for the Reformed faith in the world. H
Many people are familiar with the public persona of Herman Hoeksema. As one of the leading theologians of the twentieth century, a seminary professor, the pastor of a large congregation, and a prolific writer, he was well-known in ecclesiastical circles, as well as in the world in general. But to his family he was "just Dad." This anecdotal biography written by his youngest child records many stories about him, some perhaps familiar but others never before told.

Originally published in Dutch in the USA in 1923 and titled Van Zonde en Genade, book argues against the concept of a common grace of God to the reprobate that was first introduced into theological circles by Dr. Abraham Kuyper of the Netherlands. Authors show the theory of common grace to be unbiblical and contrary to the Reformed continental creeds. The authors supply a brief history of the importance of particular grace in Reformed theology, land ay out their analysis of sin and grace using an "organic" approach, often quoting from Kuyper's work De Gemeene Gratie. They answer pro-common grace arguments of Rev. Henry Wierenga of the Christian Reformed Church and of Dr. Valentine Hepp of the Free University of Amsterdam. They also exegete key Bible passages that pro-common grace men were fond of quoting. This book is of historical importance in revealing the controversies of the 1920s, which resulted, after the pubication of the book, in the deposition of both authors from the Christian Reformed Church and their helping to found the Protestant Reformed Churches, which stood squarely against common grace and for a particular grace of God in the salvation of the elect.
The Heidelberg Catechism, Triple Knowledge Is In Ten Volumes.
The third book in the Reformed Spirituality series, this book again consists of meditations by Protestant Reformed minister and theologian, Herman Hoeksema. The meditations in this volume have in common their living, breathing zeal for the glory of the good God. God is only good--good in himself; good in creation; good in salvation; good in Christ; good to his elect people. This set of beautiful meditations demonstrate that genuine spirituality rises from and ends in the glory of God, for the zeal of the soul for God's glory is the most profound spirituality. And because the Spirit works spirituality by sound doctrine, spirituality exists and flourishes by means of sound instruction in biblical, Reformed doctrine.
A thought-provoking new meditation by the author of such well known books on the passion and death of our Lord as The Royal Sufferer, Rejected of Men, The Power of the Cross, and others, Man of Sorrows is a penetrating and deeply moving study of the redemptive love of God, revealed in the sufferings of Jesus Christ, and prefigured in the ""Man of Sorrows"" of Isaiah with whose ""stripes we are healed."" Nine chapters expound pertinent passages from Isaiah 50 and 53, and the final chapter, ""Tell My Disciples - and Peter,"" based on a passage from Mark, sets for the triumph of the resurrection, and the redemptive love of God. Always provocative, the Rev. Hoeksema never fails to give new insight into the inexhaustible theme of suffering, death, and resurrection of our Savior Lord. The thoughtful reader will find this new study a rewarding experience.
