Loraine Boettner

Loraine Boettner (1901-03-07 to 1990-01-03) was an American theologian and author.

Boettner was born in Linden, Missouri. He received a Th.B. (1928) and Th.M. (1929) from Princeton Theological Seminary, and he received the honorary degrees of Doctor of Divinity (1933) and Doctor of Letters (1957). He was a member of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church. For eight years he taught Bible at Pikeville College in Kentucky, and in 1937 he began working at the Library of Congress and the Bureau of Internal Revenue. While his daily vocation was not theology or Biblical studies, he continued to write and publish books until near his death, the most successful of which were "The Reformed Doctrine of Predestination" and "Roman Catholicism".
