Systematic Theology by Louis Berkhof





I just found out that that most (of not all) of Louis Berkhof's Systematic Theology is freely available online here:

www.biblicaltraining.org/book/export/html/7359
(recommended because it's the printer friendly version)

or here:

http://www.biblicaltraining.org/library/systematic-theology-louis-berkhof

Berkhof's Systematic Theology is without question one of the greatest Calvinistic Systematic Theologies every produced. It's regarded as a true classic among knowledgeable Calvinists.

The Weight of Glory by C.S. Lewis


This is considered by some to be one of the greatest sermons ever delivered. I agree. Along with Jonathan Edwards writings, and Lewis' other writings, this sermons was a major influence in John Piper writing his classic book Desiring God: Meditations of a Christian Hedonist.

 

Here's a link to get to John Piper's most influential, revolutionary and paradigm shifting book Desiring God. It's considered to be one of the greatest Christian books written in the 20th century. I wholeheartedly agree!!!
