Dr. Greg L. Bahnsen was once described as "the man atheists fear most."  He was a distinguished scholar, author, and Christian apologist.  A graduate of Westminster Theological Seminary (M.Div., Th.M.), he received his Ph.D. in philosophy from the University of Southern California. While at Westminster, he had the privilege of studying under Dr. Cornelius Van Til, the father of presuppositionalism. He was an ordained minister in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church.  

He was the author of Theonomy in Christian Ethics, a unique treatise on the ongoing validity of the application of God's law for us today.He also authored No Other Standard - Thenomy and Its Critics and House Divided: The Breakup of Dispensational Theology with Dr. Kenneth Gentry.

He traveled extensively and had the opportunity to visit Moscow, Russia and bring the light of God's Word to bear on that needy society. At the time of his death in December, 1995, he was the resident scholar at the Southern California Center for Christian Studies in Irvine, CA.
