As you noted in your opening post, it is quite beautifully written. Some parts were simply stunning. Here is why: most Reformed theologues, bible students, and apologists are awesome at arguing for theology and Christianity in the abstract. Unfortunately, 95% of the world doesn't think in the abstract.

Jones and Wilson argue in the concrete--and do a real good job of it.
