Bible Question:
What are the basics of theology?
Bible Answer:
Theology is the study of God. The term theology usually implies “systematic theology” which is an organized and logical sequential study of biblical truth. Studies in theology can range from the elementary or basic truths to comprehensive courses in theology. The major categories of systematic theology are given in the table below.
Conclusion:
The reader is encouraged to check the list of “Book Suggestions” for recommended books in Systematic Theology. We recommended the study series titled, “Solid Roots” which is available on this website or “The Fundamentals of the Faith” which is authored by John MacArthur. Both present the basics of theology for the new Christian. We recommend “Evangelical Theology” which is authored by Robert Lightner for intermediate studies. For advanced studies see “Biblical Doctrine: A Systematic Summary of Bible Truth” which is edited by John MacArthur and Richard Mayhue or Wayne Grudem’s “Systematic Theology.”
