Summary: Good explanation of conditional security
Comment: Life in the Son is a good critique of Eternal Security that doesn't contain much of the polemics that are so common in many books and articles (on both sides) on the issue of Eternal Security. Shank explains the key verses that always become flashpoints in debates in an easy to understand manner. There are a few problems with his book that I would like to point out. For instance, he seems to concentrate more on contradictory Calvinist commentaries of the verses rather than explaining the verses themselves. But all in all, its a pretty good book.

Rating: 5
Summary: Great for any Theologians Library!
Comment: Absolutely wonderful! This book was tremendously helpful for me as I wrestled with the question of eternal security. If anyone is seeking objective truth within the Scriptures, this is it. A book has not been written as clearly and profoundly as this. After reading this book it was clear what the Scriptures teach. An excellent book for anyone who is willing to be humble enough and accept truth. You cannot question his conclusions simply because he sticks to what the Word of God says in it's original context and language.

Rating: 1
Summary: Illogical and deceptive
Comment: The work is deceptive. Presentation of data has conclusions that are jumps in logic. Quotes given to support view against eternal security are deceptive. Reason? One must not use quotes from a person who does not support your view by passing them off as quotes that appear to be in support of your view.

The Greek grammar appears to be solid, until one realizes that an incomplete view of grammar is given. Taking a rule of grammar and including only part of it to support one's view is deception.

The work takes a more Catholic view to salvation, making it a process more than a one time event. The view taken is that of works salvation--one must do such and such and continue to do such and such over a period of time for salvation.

As for the idea that perseverance of the saints = eternal security. That is also incorrect. The book is flawed from the very first.

Not recomended. Appears to be good scholarship, but only appears as such.
