Welcome to the website of Dr. Don Kistler. Dr. Kistler is a Bible teacher and author. If there is a theme to this website, it is “Doctrine Matters.” As the Puritans would often say, “Theology is the art of living well to God.” Proper theology should culminate in proper conduct and practice, or, “Orthodoxy leads to orthopraxy.” We will not live any better than our theology; we may not live as well as our theology, but we will never live any better.

Here we hope you will find teaching that will influence and guide your decisions, choices, and behavior. Since theology is about God, it is imminently practical by its very nature. The more we know God, the more we will seek to imitate Him and the more we will please Him.

JUSTIFICATION BY FAITH ALONE
by Don Kistler and Dr. John Gerstner
RETAIL PRICE: $60
OUR PRICE: $50.00 + Shipping

Since the doctrine of justification by faith alone is the central doctrine of the Christian faith, it is no wonder that it is constantly under attack. What is surprising is that it is under attack from those who call themselves evangelical Protestants. This series examines the doctrine, the historicity of the doctrine, and the absolute necessity of the doctrine. To be off on this one is the difference between eternal heaven and eternal hell.
