A good introduction to Reformed theology. It explains the basics of the theology rather well, though I will say that it is a little light on Scriptural support. That support definitely is there, but Sproul chooses to explain the ideas rather than prove them. I suppose he wanted to keep the book short and readable, so he put in a few verses that illustrates each point and then move on. The result is that I think a reader will understand the ideas, but may not be convinced of them or be able to prove them from the Word of God.

With that in mind, if you want an overview of Reformed theology, this is a good one. But dig deeper after reading this book and take a look at the Bible. I believe that the Word will hold these things true. ( )

If you don't know much about reformed theology, Grace Unknown would be a good primer for you. You may not agree with reformed theology after reading it, but you will have a better understanding of it. ( )

This book, as indicated by the title, covers the basics of Reformed theology. Sproul’s book is a little more technical than Horton’s book (Putting Amazing Back Into Grace), in that Sproul sprinkles Latin theological terms throughout; however, he always explains them and includes a glossary of foreign terms at the back of the book. This is a solid book that sketches covenant theology and the 5-points of Calvinism. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0801065593, Paperback)

Few evangelical Christians today understand Reformed theology, even though it has become an immensely influential theological tradition. Recognizing only key terms relating to predestination or the five points, many Christians want a better explanation of the concepts and beliefs that make up a Reformed perspective. What is Reformed Theology? is an introduction to a doctrine that has eluded so many evangelical Christians. And who better to teach about Reformed theology than R. C. Sproul? In thoroughly expounding the foundational doctrines and five points, Sproul asserts the reality of God's amazing grace. For anyone wanting to know more about Reformed theology, this candid book offers a coherent and complete introduction to an established belief. Previously published as Grace Unknown
