"It would be difficult to mention any single work in which the glorious plan of man's redemption is more fully and clearly exhibited, than in Dr. Bates' Harmony Of The Divine Attributes. The writer recollects with pleasure and gratitude, that when he was first led to attend with interest to theological subjects, this work fell into his hands, and was read with profit and delight; and now, after the lapse of forty years, he has again perused it with unmingled approbation; and he can scarcely conceive of any better method of exhibiting the doctrines of the gospel, than that which is here pursued." - Archibald Alexander
