Bøker av George Smeaton

I started with the conviction that we cannot attain a full view of the New Testament doctrine on the subject, except in a biblico-historical way; and have abstained from the artificial construction to which systematic theology has recourse, as well as from merely subjective combinations. The work is rather biblical than formally dogmatic or polemical, and intended to embody positive truth according to the setting in which the doctrine is placed in the apostolic documents.--From the Preface.

This volume of Smeaton on the Holy Spirit Dr. Macleod declares to be invaluable within its own range, and adds of him that next to Principal William Cunningham he stood as our foremost student of the history of Reformed theology. Smeaton had a thorough grasp of the historical development of the great Christian doctrines, such as the doctrine of the Atonement and the doctrine of the Holy Spirit. In this field, as Dr. Macleod informs us, he did very fine work indeed.--From the Foreword.

His sensitive theological acumen and skill in judicious exposition is seen clearly in this book.

With 272 pages, you will find this book one of the most extensive expositions of those Scriptures which bear on the Atonement.
