HYPERLINK "http://purgatorio1.com/?p=531"50 Books You Should Leave on The
Shelf 

These are books that have influenced evangelicalism that one should
generally steer clear of due to errant theology, outright heresy, just plain
lousy writing, being extremely dated or trendy, your own time stewardship or
a combination thereof. I’m not saying these shouldn’t be read at all, some

Hey, I like some of ryrie’s notes!

Charis, 

Mike Abendroth 

'God rides forth conquering in the chariot of His Gospel. . . He conquers
the pride of the heart, and makes the will which stood out as a Fort Royal
against Him, to yield and stoop to His grace; He makes the stony heart
bleed. Oh! it is a mighty call! Why then do some men seem to speak of a
moral persuasion? That God in the conversion of a sinner only morally
persuades and no more? If God in conversion should only morally persuade and
no more, then He does not put forth so much power in saving men as the Devil
does in destroying them.'   Thomas Watson
