Relation To Books The Institutes of Biblical Law, Volume 1 of 3

Rousas John (R. J.) Rushdoony (1916-2001) was a well-known American scholar, writer, and author of over thirty books. He held B.A. and M.A. degrees from the University of California and received his theological training at the Pacific School of Religion. An ordained minister, he worked as a missionary among Paiute and Shoshone Indians as well as a pastor to two California churches. He founded the Chalcedon Foundation, an educational organization devoted to research, publishing, and cogent communication of a distinctively Christian scholarship to the world-at-large. His writing in the Chalcedon Report and his numerous books spawned a generation of believers active in reconstructing the world to the glory of Jesus Christ. Until his death, he resided in Vallecito, California, where he engaged in research, lecturing, and assisting others in developing programs to put the Christian Faith into action.

One of the most significant books I have ever read. I've made all my children read it, and I've done book studies through it twice.Rushdoony at his best!

R. J. Rushdoony is a modern day Moses. This book is the foundational book for all his other many writings. As Rushdoony has said before, "Christ does not save men in order to make them moral idiots."Rushdoony desires for the world to have true revival, and revival comes when men are called out of their lawless living, back into obedience to the law of God. We do not obey God so that we may be saved, we obey the law of God because we have been saved.Read Rushdoony

The law in the Old Testament is often treated as an embarrassing thing by Christians and the church. There are those that look down upon it, and it is easy to be thankful one is not a Jew under the obligations of the Old Testament law. Secularists often point to things like the condemnation of cloths made with two materials, no sex with a menstruating wife, laws against homosexuality, and on and on. Too often Christians join in the ridicule and dismiss the goodness of Gods law.Along comes R.J.

My feelings about Calvinism are not very hidden.  I'm pretty open about them, and the thoughts tend towards the negative [1].  This book, at 850 pages, is a good reason as to why this is the case.  Few books are as frustrating as this one is, with a great deal of wisdom and insight on the level of broad theory and approach and such terrible interpretation of scripture and history on the specific level.  Few books combine such a pitiless and remorseless logic with such a nauseating lack of

YAY I AM DONE! *does happy dance* The Institute of Bibical Law is truly a facinating read, it stretched my thoughts and opinions to a remarkable extent, and I have a better grasp of the Bible because of it. It was, though, long and I often struggled to finish it. While adjetives like "facinating" or "fantastic" might be a bit more enthusastic then the book deserves, it certainly is an educational read that the you can't help but learn from.

Read this in high school (~2010). There are a lot of helpful things in here, but I don't know if I buy into Rushdoony's theonomy.

I come not to praise Rushdoony, but to bury him. I put off reviewing this work, either here or on amazon, for over 5 years. Even in my recon days, this book had too many conceptual problems to warrant "free praise." We will get to those problems in a minute. It would be futile (and intellectually impossible) to give an adequate review and summary of this work. Obviously, it parallels Calvin by title. Part of the book is a running (if massively flawed) commentary on the Ten Commandments.
