Thank you kindly

Sovereignty of God books?
Brother give this link a look as well as this site.[url=http://www.monergism.com/directory/link_category/Gods-Attributes/The-Sovereignty-of-God/]Monergism
Also browse around in their bookstore[url=http://www.monergismbooks.com/]Monergism Books
I would reccomend "The Reformed Doctrine of Predestination" by Lorraine Boettner. It has some very good Scriptural insights into the sovereignty of God.
If you are interested, here is a link to a great set of messages, scroll down a bit and you will find The Sovereignty of God as a topic, as well as The Sovereignty of God and responsiblity of man[url=http://www.monergism.com/thethreshold/articles/onsite/histtheocalvin.html]History And Theology of Calvinism
Every blessing to you in Christ Jesus our great Saviour!
a great book i just read called "Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God" by J.I. Packer, like candy brother!

andy

There is a great 3 hour DVD titled Amazing Grace the history and theology of calvanism. I've attached a link from CBD with the info.
Hi again
Thank you so much for your help,Monergism's site looks very good,I found a book called "Still Sovereign" that I think I will save up for.And i Have wanted to read J.I. Packer's "Evangelism and The Sovereignty of God",I have wondered about the two topics together and struggle as I seek to reach the world with Jesus Christ,and I am watching "Word Pictures-Sovereignty of God" video series and I think it very well done,thank you again brothers and sisters
Love Brian
thanks... yeeehee
I'd say John Piper's stuff. He doesn't preach as if it's just 'head-knowledge' he preaches from the heart.

**A word of wisdom. Let's have a just balance (Proverbs 16:11). Don't forget that His Sovereign Power sometimes works THROUGH YOU and your responsible. Without those 2 principles, your in danger of falling into an extreme and thats detestiable to the Lord (Pro. 11:1; 20:23)
Hi Lovegrace
Thanks for the recommendation I went to Dr Pipers' website tonight and listened to a message called "Sustained by the Sovereign Grace of God" and the passage was from Jeremiah 32.I am happily speechless right now and will need to listen further.I'd love to hear him talk about Romans,Wow what a teacher,God speaks thru this gentleman in astonishing ways,My friend Nick has told me of Dr Piper before and I never got round to listening to Him,but I'm glad I did,God so encouraged me tonight,Thank you Jesus and also thank you Lovegrace for your kindness in recommending him and your appropriate comment at the end of your post.
Blessings
Brian :-)
I strongly recommend reading John Piper's sermon series on Romans. His site has those in written form for note taking and cross reference. It is a long series of sermons and is very comprehensive.
Piper is the only one I've found that teaches Calvinism from the heart but in the Spirit of love, gentleness, and humility. Be blessed.

Thanks... I will check it out. I hope to grow in these qualities. These I believe to be foundational values for the kingdom.
