Doctrine
is nothing more than a set of teachings about a particular
topic. Where Confessions and Creeds tend
to be conclusive doctrinal statements rather than rigorous examinations
of competing points of view, this page will
provide some lively, even contentious, debates that
occupy so much of our time -- but not without purpose. We cannot accept
someone's characterization of biblical truth without challenging,
questioning, and comparing what has been said to Scripture itself - and
that must be done by employing the full range of interpretive
and diagnostic tools at our disposal. I've arranged the doctrines according
to their standard classifications, as follows:
Why
Study Theology? - Shane Rosenthal
The Gospel - What must we do
to be saved?
Bibliology -
The Canon and Authority of Scripture
Anthropology - The nature and
condition of man
Theology
- The nature and attributes of God
- Pateriology - The
person and work of the Father
- Christology - The
person and work of Jesus Christ
- Pneumatology - The
person and work of the Holy Spirit
Soteriology - Redemption through the
blood of Christ (scope and effects of the cross)
Ecclesiology - Doctrines concerning the
church
Eschatology - Doctrines concerning last
things
Dogmatics - Systematic theologies
