Adams gives a much needed corrective to a growing and pervasive heresy within the church. He convincingly demolishes the New Reformation dogma, first by exposing the roots grounded in secular humanism, then by exposing the sloppy attempts by self-esteem advocates to establish a biblical basis for their unbiblical doctrine. At the same time, Adams reminds us that by grace Christ came to save sinners who deserve nothing but God's wrath. ( )
