Summary: A call to arms for evangelicals
Comment: It should be noted from Art Sippo's review that he is strongly Roman Catholic, so why should we be suprised that he does not come to the same conclusions about the Gospel as evangelicals do? What we should be suprised by is the fact Mr. Sippo could be so blind that he could see right past the cover where it says "The Tie that Binds EVANGELICALS Together". He is right about the fact that this isn't a defense of sola fide. But then again Dr. Sproul makes it quite clear that it isn't intended to be. This is a call for evangelicals to get their acts together. Mr. Sippo's anti-evangelical bias was the sole basis for his reveiw. I suppose my frustration towards Mr. Sippo was mine. Dr. Sproul couldn't make it clearer in the opening pages that this book is for the evangelical community. Mr. Sippo's review is essentially irrelevant for that reason.

Summary: Calls a spade a spade
Comment: Sproul demonstrates that Roman Catholicism and Evangelical Protestantism are simply not in agreement when it comes to the essential issue of how a person is justified before God--and both ways cannot be correct. At one time in church history, both sides recognized this and felt passionately about it. Now, fuzzy theology and "spiritual" experience has tended to blunt the sharp edge of biblical and theological truth.
Readers in either camp should be happy that the issue has been clarified. The quest for unity at the expense of truth--or even truthfulness about the positions in question--is not helpful. Let each side figure out what they believe and try to convince the other--but let us be done with saying that we all believe the same thing when there are clear and critical differences!
If you want help in understanding those differences and in understanding how you can be sure of your eternal destiny through faith in Jesus Christ alone--and not having to wait for some final judgment you have no hope of surviving--read this book and anything else Sproul has written along with the New Testament.
Grace alone, faith alone, Christ alone!
