Summary: 110 years after its original publication, The Wonderful Works of God remains one of the finest single-volume systematic theologies ever written.

Previously published in America as Our Reasonable Faith, this book has had a deep and lasting influence on the growth and development of Reformed theology. It is the publisher s hope that in its new form, this book continues to astonish readers with the wonderful works of God, and provide a deeper knowledge of their triune God--From Amazon.com.Other editions: Revision of (expression): Bavinck, Herman, 1854-1921.
