Valiant for the Truth

Description

The Book comprises twenty-six articles by Bishop D.A. Thompson, former chairman of the Bible League Council and editor of the Bible League Quarterly. These span the period he edited the magazine (1961-1970), but also include material from his booklets, pamphlets and transcribed addresses on other occasions. The Bible League trusties believe that the timeless value of this material would be a blessing to our generation, and therefore we have brought them together in this volume.

The bishop’s breadth and depth of reading was considerable. He handles everything he takes up with illuminating skill; whether textual criticism, Bible exposition, Church history, experimental and practical Christianity, or controversial matters. While his scholarship is undeniable, he nevertheless wrote in an accessible and devotional way. There is nothing dry and tedious in his treatment of various aspects of truth. His gracious way of treating every subject encourages the reader to share his high view of the Scriptures and the importance of contending for the Faith in our day.
