Page 2 of 2 Kingdom Come does have one flaw. The book only explores the positives of the NBST and its adherents. Because of the theme of the book, this is to be expected. If this is your introduction to Restoration history, I would encourage you to read other sources as well to develop a well rounded view of our heritage. If you are already familiar with Stone-Campbell history, you will readily fill in the obvious omissions.
Kingdom Come is a great read! It is informative with history and quotes from source documents. It is inspirational as each chapter has a bible study related to the element of theology explored in that section. Lipscomb and Harding’s biographies reveal two men who lived what they taught and resisted the temptation to become citizens of this world; instead enduring shame and persecution. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to know more about Restoration history, but more importantly; for anyone who wants to be challenged about their view of God, the Holy Spirit, the return of Jesus and lifestyle choices we make.

I've ordered the book...

I'm looking forward to this read. There have been many regrettable things said and done over the years in the RM. But one of the most regrettable IMO is that some wonderful, noble principles and convictions have been left behind. I'm eager to see what treasures we can rediscover from our predecessors.
