The Five Points of Calvinism

What are the five points of Calvinism?  What do they mean?  Why should we believe them?  This fortieth-anniverary edition of The Five Points of Calvinism, now with Scripture quotations from the English Standard Version, contains updated source information and new appendices on such themes as "A Kinder, Gentler Calvinism," "Perseverance and Preservation," and "The Practical Applications of Calvinism." 

"Truly a classic -- clear, concise, and warm in its presentation of historic Reformed theology." -- R. C. Sproul
