Summary

Understanding the doctrines of grace will give you a clearer picture of God’s sovereignty. From the lawgiver Moses to the apostle John, and from the early church fathers to modern defenders of the faith, there has marched onto the stage of human history a long line of godly men, a triumphant parade of spiritual stalwarts who have upheld the doctrines of grace. In this book, the first in the three-volume A Long Line of Godly Men series, Dr. Steven J. Lawson takes you on a heart-stirring survey of the Scriptures to show that the Bible in its entirety teaches the doctrines of grace

I was delighted with this book all the way and would highly recommend it! God’s sovereignty is manifest throughout sacred Scripture and in this book.Lawson begins in chapter 1 - "A Long Line of Godly Men" - showing some history of refomation history as it is based on the Bible!  A very clear book to read. a family devotion or a great graduation gift!

Lawson makes that clear also:

"The doctrine of election, then, is at the very heart of redemptive history. It
is not some insignificant, esoteric doctrine that can be trivialized or relegated
to seminary classroom debates. Rather, it is at the center of how we under-
stand salvation and the church. It informs our evangelism, our preaching, and
our identity as the body of Christ." (pg. 18)

Others say As Dr. Steve Lawson’s reconnaissance of this matter so clearly shows, God’s sovereignty is manifest throughout sacred Scripture… . When you finish reading this book, I would wonder and worry if you continue to persist in denying the full measure of God’s sovereignty in our salvation.” 

— Dr. R.C. Sproul, Minister of preaching and teaching, Saint Andrew’s Chapel, Sanford, Fla.

“The doctrines of grace are often misunderstood and mischaracterized. This helpful new book explains them thoughtfully and well. May God use it for His glory and others’ good.”
— Dr. D. James Kennedy, Senior Minister, Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church, Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.

“Steve Lawson understands that the text of the Bible presents a consistent witness to God’s sovereignty and the panoramic display of God’s glory. All this is evident in his preaching ministry and in his writing ministry as well.”
— R. Albert Mohler, Jr., President, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

“Steven Lawson clearly and comprehensively lays the scriptural groundwork for the doctrines of grace.” 
— Dr. John MacArthur, Pastor-teacher, Grace Community Church, Sun Valley, Calif.

“Gripped in mind and heart by the twin truths of God’s total sovereignty and His amazing grace, Steve Lawson compellingly traces these themes from the beginning to the end of Scripture… . Foundations of Grace shows, in a multitude of ways, that the Scriptures are useful ‘for teaching, reproof, correction, and training in righteousness.’” 
— Dr. Sinclair B. Ferguson, Senior pastor, First Presbyterian Church, Columbia, S.C.
