The crux of the free offer of the gospel

Does God have a genuine desire for the salvation of all men? In The Crux of the Free Offer, Sam Waldron provides a scriptural and historical analysis of the Well-Meant Offer of the Gospel. Waldron not only provides a biblical defense of the Well-Meant Offer but he also looks at many of the important implications of this doctrine, shows the way the Reformed confessions affirmed it, answers important theological and soteriological objections, and applies this doctrine to the Christian and the preacher.

"I am thrilled that Dr. Waldron has taken up this vital subject. Those like myself who share Dr. Waldron’s commitment to the Well-Meant Offer may not agree on every detail of every one of his arguments, but here they will find a clear-thinking, informed, thorough, and convincing treatment of the subject to be reckoned with. This book leaves few, if any, stones unturned or objections unaddressed. With the resurgence of Calvinism in our day, we should be greatly concerned that the kind of Calvinism promoted and proclaimed is of the true, historical, warmly-evangelical and biblical kind, not a distortion of it. Here is a book pointing the way. May it be read widely and greatly used of God to that end!" Jeffery Smith
