God's Goodness Always Particular

By Herman Hoeksema

0 - Default Title
Description
Rev. Daniel Zwier wrote a series of articles in the 1930s that attempted to defend the first point of common grace adopted by the Christian Reformed synod in 1924. Rev. Zwier charged that Rev. Herman Hoeksema and those who followed him were guilty of rationalism, faulty exegesis, and bad theology.Zwier claimed to set forth a "triple cord" of texts that spoke clearly in support of a goodness of God to the ungodly reprobate. This goodness consisted in God’s giving the wicked good gifts such as rain, sunshine, and fruitful seasons. Zwier’s purpose with these texts was to fashion a triple cord of scriptural proof for the doctrine of common grace that could not be broken.Hoeksema gives Zwier a spirited response. He pulls no punches. Hoeksema shows the modern reader and writer the proper and biblical way to be polemical when God’s honor is at stake and the Reformed faith is being attacked. Hoeksema did not back down from controversy.What does the Bible teach regarding God’s attitude to the reprobate ungodly? What are the implications that God has an attitude of favor to the wicked? Do the Psalms support or give the lie to the theory of common grace? Does Zwier’s triple cord hold firm, or is it cut to ribbons?Hoeksema shows clearly that God’s love and favor are for his elect whom he has redeemed in Christ. As for those outside of Christ, the wrath of God abides on them. Read and gain new appreciation for the truth that God’s goodness is always particular.
