Summary: Massive Volume On Eternal Security
Review: Dan Corner is to be commended for his 800 page work on eternal security (or "Once Saved, Always Saved"; OSAS in the book). While most Calvinist will not agree with Corner's view on eternal security, he does put his finger on a sore spot in the evangelical church world. Like it or not, Calvinism has produced shallow views on holiness and sin. I would have have given the book a five star vote however I believe Corner's arguments would be stronger if he would not just focus on eternal security but deal with all five points of Calvinism. The doctrine of perseverance is based on the other four principles of Calvinism particularly election. While Corner deals with some aspects of election, a few chapters devoted to John Calvin's view of election would help to solidify his arguments against eternal security even more. This is a good book to read and is fast paced. Despite the length, you will be intrigued by much of what Calvinist theologians, pastors, and historians have to say about the teaching of eternal security.

Summary: DOCTRINES OF DEMONS REFUTED!!
Review: Dan Corner's book very convincingly refutes the heretical doctrine of unconditional security that is so prevalent in our churches today. I believe scripture points out that "once saved always saved" or unconditional security is the doctrine of demons alluded to in 1 Timothy 4:1. Corner doesn't get tangled in fancy theological arguments to cloud the truth, but he lets scripture interpret scripture. The book gives overwhelming scriptural evidence to support the doctrine of "conditional" security.Those in opposition always resort to their false argument of "works salvation" which they cry everytime someone mentions holiness, righteousness or perseverence, which we as believers are exhorted to walk in over and over in scripture. I would encourage everyone to read this book with an open mind and Bible to discover the liberating true gospel of the cross. ...
God Bless You

Summary: Discard the Critics. This Book is Great!
Review: Difficult passages would include: ¡°By this Gospel you are saved IF you hold fast that Word I preached unless you have believed in vain!¡± 1Cor15:2 or ANY passage that includes the CONDITIONAL aspect of our eternal salvation. (written in Greek, Hebrew or any language, it means the same thing!) As for a PhD or ThD being better qualified to define the Bible and teach others, does history bare this out? I think not! Show me where God has chosen the highly educated, the ¡®wise¡¯ of this world to preach the message of the Cross. Does not the VERY scriptures declare that God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise? (1Cor1:27) NAME a revival of any consequence in transforming society that was brought about by ¡®educated¡¯ men. They oppose such things! From Pentecost to now the so-called religious scholars have done everything within their power to oppose the true work of God among men. Including BURNING people at the stake! (i.e. John Calvin)
Dan Corner writes a book pointing people to the Cross of Jesus Christ and the warnings of scripture and all the ¡®theologians¡¯ can do is remain in their delusion teaching others that they can sin their way into the kingdom. Let¡¯s compare Dan¡¯s teaching to Charles Stanley or Chuck Swindoll of the Moody Bible network who say in blatant terms that you can DENY Christ and He WON¡¯T deny you and that you can LIVE LIKE THE DEVIL and still inherit the kingdom! Now these men are ¡®scholars¡¯, noted teachers with theological degrees and look at what they are saying. The EXACT opposite of Scripture!
¡°For this you KNOW, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man who is an idolater has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ in God. LET NO ONE DECEIVE you with empty words! For because of these things the WRATH of God comes upon the sons of disobedience!¡± (Eph5:5-7)
But by some magic of ¡®interpretation¡¯ and biblical exegetical skill this doesn¡¯t apply to the ¡®Christian¡¯. No, the Christian can ¡®sin¡¯ and NOT die, (Rom8:13) because God is a ¡®respecter¡¯ of persons, meaning that ¡®sin¡¯ works death in some but LIFE in others! I guess the Apostle Peter was also another uneducated idiot when he wrote, 1Pet1:17
¡°And IF you call on God who WITHOUT partiality judges according to each one¡¯s work, conduct the time of your sojourn here in fear!¡±
Can ANYONE comprehend what these men have done to our society? Dan Corner is sounding the ALARM! By taking hyper Calvinism to it¡¯s ultimate extreme these so-called modern scholars have fulfilled Jude3-4 to perfection. Changing the grace of God into a license for immorality is nothing new, that¡¯s for certain, but what you are seeing today it the absolute embodiment of Satan¡¯s diabolical system to capture the souls of mankind before he runs out of time! ¡°Great Swelling words of emptiness!¡± the scriptures declares, (2Pet2:18) They promise people ¡®liberty¡¯ while in bondage to corruption. It matters not how these men ¡®appear¡¯, how godly they act or how well they can ¡®use¡¯ biblical terminology. What matters is that they are spreading a deadly poison in our society that has ruined the churches and destroyed more lives than anyone could possibly imagine. Unless MORE local ministers wake up to this horrid mess and start CONTENIND for the faith against this onslaught of demonic doctrine, this generation is LOST. GET Dan Corner¡¯s book now and join the great battle for truth before it¡¯s too late.

Summary: A BOOK NOT TO BE JUST READ BUT CAREFULLY STUDIED
Review: I give thanks to the Lord for the opportunity to have come accross Dan Corner's book The Believer's Conditional Security. Amongst so many erroneous doctrines in the present so-called Evangelical Churches, the light this book radiates is so brilliant that bashishes all shades of false doctrines and man-made theories concerning the salvation of the believers and their final perseverance. The work is extremely well documented, and its doctrine is absolutely sane and according to Jesus's and the Apostle's teachings. Without HOLINESS, NO ONE shall see the Lord. (Heb. 12:14). Reggie

Summary: As a new, young Christian, this book is excellent.
Review: I guess I've been blessed by not being "indoctrinated" by the teachings of a church, in particular, the doctrine of eternal security. I've not read the book in its entirety, however, what I've read so far makes sense. And what Mr. Corner sets out to prove (that the teaching of eternal security is a false doctrine) lines up with what the Bible teaches. And as to what a previous reviewer said about those Calvanist preachers with a PhD (or whatever type of degree they may have) having an ability to better understand the Bible: WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! The Bible is better understood when the person reading it is filled with the Holy Spirit. God could care less what degree you have and how much education you've obtained. That is why 1 Cor. 1:27 says "But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;" This book is very good, very informative, Biblically based and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to know the truth about eternal security and the history behind it. Thank you Mr. Corner for your thorough presentation.

Summary: GREAT FOR PRESENTING THE ENTIRE TOPIC
Review: I have been interested in the topic of the believers security since I believed in the Lord back in the early 70s. At one time I embraced this view! The problem I had was what to do with all the warning passages. If I integrate all the warnings with all the promises and apply the same plain method of interpretation, I arrive at a conditional security position. Dan's book is great for presenting the entire topic, warnings and promises. He also deals with the history of this doctrine thoroughly and discusses what the early church believed prior to its inception with Augustin. Many WEB sites that hold to OSAS only present a laundry list of the promise passages but they are unbalanced because they do not deal with the warning passages. Or they will apply an exegetical approach to the promises and eisegetical approach to the warnings in order to rescue their beliefs from what the Bible actually teaches. The differences in Dan's approach and the OSAS crowd is that Dan builds a Biblical theology while the OSAS adherents use select portions of the Bible to support their preconceived dogma. All interested in this topic should take advantage of the thorough, balanced approach presented in Dan's book.

Summary: A book of great truths!
Review: I have read many books on the subject of eternal security, and this one without question goes into the very heart of the question. It seems that Mr. Corner doesn't like to leave any stone unturned, he has covered the subject in such a way that I believe that he has just about exhausted the subject of "eternal security." Time spent reading this book will without doubt pay dividends the rest of your life. When you read this book, like all books, it is important to read it completely through, it will be time well spent. I could not imagine the time Mr. Corner must of spent in research! May God richly bless him. Charles Wright
