I have found this volume to be of tremendous help to my own theological study. Whenever I forget about the Scriptural details of these issues, I find myself rereading these chapters, because Dr. Gentry is so organized, concise, and to the point about what really matters.

It is impossible to love God with our minds if they are empty. This volume, with clarity, relevance, and wit, equips Christians to develop minds so that they cease being empty-headed children and instead can in their “thinking be mature” (1 Cor. 14:20). Even where I disagree with my learned friend, the cogency of his analysis remains compelling.

I thoroughly enjoyed Dr. Gentry’s delightful book Nourishment from the Word. I will recommend it as a primer to my Christian contacts as a very readably excellent but brief exposition of those Church and Doctrinal Issues so aptly and ably and sensitively covered by this book. In particular, I found Dr Gentry’s coverage of the Baptismal Mode and Tongues-Speaking outstanding! Here’s to Dr. Gentry and those other great defenders of the truths we hold dear! Jerry, I think you’re doing a great service publishing these types of works!
