Description
Excerpt from The Christian Doctrine of God, Vol. 1: Dogmatics
Dogmatics is not the Word of God. God can make His Word prevail in the world without theology. But at a time when human thought is so often confused and perverted by fantastic ideas and theories, spun out of men''s own minds, it is evident that it is almost impossible to preserve the Divine Word with out the most passionate intellectual effort to te-think its mean ing and its content. The simple Christian may, it is true, under stand and preserve God''s Word without theology; but for those Christians who are involved in the thinking of their own day, and who, as children of their own day, are deeply in?uenced by these currents of thought, an all-inclusive and thorough effort to re-think what has been given'' ''to faith ls absolutely indis pensable. This is particularly true for those whose calling it is to proclaim this faith to others.
