This new edition of Systematic Theology by Wayne Grudem may be the
most important resource you can own for helping you understand
Scripture and grow as a Christian. The most widely used resource of
the last 25 years in its area, Systematic Theology by Wayne Grudem
has been thoroughly revised and expanded (all 57 chapters) for the
first time while retaining the features that have made it the
standard in its field: clear explanations, an emphasis on each
doctrine's scriptural basis, and practical applications to daily
life. Praise for the second edition: "After a quarter century of
remarkable usefulness globally . . . it remains remarkable. I thank
God for this precious gift to Christ's people worldwide." - John
Piper "Stands out for its clarity and accessibility." - Thomas R.
Schreiner "One of those rare works that can challenge the scholar
and instruct the beginner . . . It is simply indispensable." - Jack
Deere With nearly 250 pages of new content and revisions that took
several years, this new edition now includes the following
distinctive features, making it even better: Updated, fuller
analysis of several recent controversies within evangelicalism,
including the eternal relationship between the Father and the Son
in the Trinity, the question of God's atemporal eternity, the role
of women in the church, "seeker-sensitive" churches, miraculous
gifts of the Holy Spirit, and contemporary worship music. New,
thoughtful critiques of open theism, the "new perspective on Paul,"
Molinism (or "middle knowledge"), "Free Grace" theology, and the
preterist view of Christ's second coming Completely revised,
stronger chapter on the clarity of Scripture Completely revised,
stronger chapter on creation and evolution, including a longer
critique of theistic evolution and an extensive discussion on the
age of the earth New discussion of how biblical inerrancy applies
to some specific "problem verses" in the Gospels Additional
material respectfully explaining evangelical Protestant differences
with Roman Catholicism (with extensive interaction with the
Catechism of the Roman Catholic Church), Protestant liberalism, and
Mormonism Completely updated bibliographies All Scripture
quotations updated from RSV to ESV An explanation of why monogenes
in John 3:16 and elsewhere should be translated as "only begotten"
rather than merely "only" (this is a change from the first edition)
A contemporary worship song added at the end of each chapter (while
retaining the traditional hymns as well) New discussion on the
impassibility of God An extensive discussion on the eternal
submission of the Son to the Father, taking into account
controversies in recent years Updated section on contemporary
worship music A discussion of recent criticisms of the penal
substitutionary view of the atonement Numerous other updates and
corrections that have be prompted by letters and emails from people
around the world and by interaction with the students Wayne has
taught over the last 26 years both at Trinity Evangelical Divinity
School and at Phoenix Seminary Part of the brilliance of Systematic
Theology over the years has been its simplicity and ease of use.
Each chapter follows the same structure. First, there is discussion
of the doctrine being considered, such as justification or the
Trinity or the deity of Christ. An explanation of that doctrine's
biblical support and possible objections follow. Personal
application and key terms to know for personal growth are then
provided. Chapters also include a Scripture memory passage,
references to other literature on the topic, and suggested hymns
and worship songs. If you are someone who thinks theology is hard
to understand or boring, then this new edition of Systematic
Theology will likely change your mind.
