Listing a book that meets the qualifications is not an endorsement of any merit of the book. Caveat lector.
[Note: Systematic Theology presents all scriptural teaching on specific doctrines, gathered by subject and presented one at a time. In it the teachings of the Bible are organized into categories – e.g. the doctrine of God, the doctrine of salvation, the doctrine of baptism, etc.]
* Thanks to Peter Lumpkins for book suggestions.
Don't forget Mullins and Moody...
ReplyDeleteAnd Garrett and McClellan...
ReplyDeleteThanks, Peter.
ReplyDeleteI had thought about Mullins and forgot to look it up and then later just forgot period. On Moody, do you mean J. B. Moody or Dale Moody? Will be looking to see (I have the one with Moody in the title by Enns). Is McClellan Mark McClellan of Oklahoma? T. P. Simmons would also qualify.
If you think of others, let me know. I'll add what suggestions I get.
Robert, Sorry. It's James McClendon. And I was thinking of Dale Moody. Also, E.C. Dargan wrote a little volume entitled "Doctrines of our Faith"
ReplyDeletePeter, I was afraid you meant Dale Moody! ;-) Thanks for these additions. I'll add them and a few other I found sometime today. I appreciate the help.
ReplyDeleteMoody was strange theological bird, but he was an important Baptist theologian for sure. Many insist Moody was thoroughly Neoorthodox following Barth but Moody deeply criticized Barth. Nor did Moody deny James Arminius' influence on him. He bragged about being a "no-point Calvinist." Anyways, personally while I would not find myself following Moody's theology in so many ways, he nonetheless deserves recognition among Southern Baptist theologians. Just my opinion, brother!
ReplyDeleteJust joking about being afraid to add Moody. The systematic theologies on my list cover a pretty broad spectrum and stay within folks who were some kind of Baptist. I only know about Moody through the controversy he was set off by teaching apostasy, or falling from grace.
