Inspiration and Authority of the Bible - B.B. Warfield


Though the jacket of this volume seems to have gone through a couple of church splits, the rest of the book is solid and handsome. There are a couple of notes in pencil, which proves that someone found this book useful, as will you. Some guy named Cornelius Van Til did the introduction (name rings a bell...). The book costs 17 dollars, postage paid to anywhere in the US, 15 if you pick it up at the store.

P.S. The Van Til name-rings-a-bell-thing was a joke. Obviously, I knew Van Til was the 3rd baseman for the Milwakee Brewers from 1933 to 1941. The introduction is chock-full of colorful anecdotes about pickup games that Van Til and Warfield played before they each went their seperate ways, Van Til to the baseball big leagues, and Warfield to the other big leagues.
