title: Beyond Calvinism and Arminianism: An Inductive Mediate Theology of Salvation
author:  C. Gordon Olson 
description: ..".this is a desperately needed text coming from someone precisely in your situation in life." -- Dr. Paige Patterson, President, SW Baptist Seminary "Personal letter"<br /><br />"I have never found anything on ... salvation as helpful and thorough.... Olson exercises great care in word studies and is faithful to the biblical context. Furthermore, his attitude and style of writing is gracious rather than pugnacious. I wish I had it in my earlier days of teaching, but, praise God, I am still learning." -- Dr. Earl Radmacher, President Emeritus, Western CB Seminary "Personal letter"<br /><br />"Delightful writing style ... articulated in scholarly yet easy to understand prose what has been my long-standing belief... His well-defined position is unadulterated Biblical truth. ... It shows careful research, documentation, and inductive Bible examination. Every serious Bible student, preacher and teacher should read this book." -- Dr. Tim LaHaye "Foreword"<br /><br />Before his homegoing Dr. Walvoord wrote me that he thought he agreed with this book, with the proviso that at 92 reading very detailed arguments in theology was difficult, but then affirmed: "In [God's] plan some people will be saved and some would be lost but on the basis of their own choices. God did not condemn them Himself." -- Dr. John F. Walvoord, late President of Dallas Seminary "Personal letter"
