Amazon Customer: The book was in great condition and looked brand new. I could not find anything that would suggest that the book was used. I was very pleased.

Sayaka: This is an amazing book! Easy to understand, never “dry.” I can honestly say it enriched my life.
I enjoyed this abridged version (on my kindle) so much that I’ve ordered Systematic Theology the big book.
Let me add that the kindle version works well. It’s easy to operate.
— Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.
(Proverbs 3:5-6)

mikmat: It's not easy to learn all about our faith with so many distractions in the world. This book is organized well and covers the essentials I need to know.
As far as the books construction; although it is a hardbound book, the paper reminds me of a paperback. And the type size for my old eyes is a little small, requiring more effort to read.
I will probably end up getting the kindle so I can enlarge the type and read it easier.
As an added bonus, the online extras are excellent.
Recommended read and study.

Sameer S Samaya: It's the best, for your personal study, regarding the basic theology, after that you can also refer the deeper side of theology books, but this one is the best for your base study.

Circuit rider: I am teaching adults in EFCA church a course on Bible Doctrine. I was so pleased to learn Dr. Grudem had produced a smaller version of the huge and detailed seminary textbook to be used in local church classes for laypeople.
The explanations are clearly presented in terms laypeople will understand. I was surprised at the number of people who wanted a book to follow along with my lectures and the various Bible passages. All the feedback I am getting from the class would indicate this is a good book to buy for any student of Scripture who wants clear explanations of the essentials of the faith.
The adults I am teaching also are mostly age 60 or older too, just in case you are wondering if it is only for younger people. With all their Bible knowledge, these adults are enjoying this Bible doctrine book.

Razor: This was one of my textbooks when I was a bible major. It's a great, easy to read book that is often my first "go to" for bible questions.
My only problem with the book is that it is specific for a Calvinist / fundamentalist / biblical literalist approach to understanding the bible but does not announce this fact. More liberal or just plain different approaches to understanding the bible exist, but they aren't really even offered a mention in this book. So while Grudem is the champion of this systematic approach, it's kind of just a survey of how his camp approaches splits in thought on different doctrines without giving the time of day to other thinkers.
