Synopsis

The book Systematic Theology: A Series of Questions Upon the Lectures Delivered to the Students in Princeton Theological Seminary offers a structured, classroom‑style exploration of Christian theology. Written as a question‑and‑answer guide, it covers the nature, forms, and sources of theology, and surveys major doctrinal debates from historic and Protestant perspectives.

Readers will encounter clear definitions, comparisons of schools of thought, and careful framing of key topics such as natural and revealed theology, the role of reason, and the different traditions within Christianity. The work traces how theologians have understood topics like original sin, grace, and the authority of Scripture, while outlining the major lines of argument across Catholic, Protestant, and reform movements.

• Foundational definitions: theology, religion, and their interrelations.


• Natural theology versus revealed theology, and where each finds value.


• Major debates on source, authority, and interpretation of the Christian faith.


• Historical surveys of Catholic and Protestant perspectives on sin, grace, and salvation.

Ideal for readers seeking a thorough, historically grounded overview of Christian doctrinal study and its major continuities and disputes.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Dr. Hodge smethod of teaching theology to the students in the Theological Seminary at Princeton is by manuscript lectures, which he reads to the successive classes. The questions printed in this volume are his own questions upon his own lectures, and furnish a general but not an exhaustive view of the course of study pursued in his department. They have been arranged for publication, (by authority of the Senior Class,) and appropriate headings added to them, in such a manner as to indicate to the eye the analysis of the subject, by one of the students, with Dr. Hodge sconsent, but without his supervision or revision. Whatever of defect there may be in the arrangement is due to the compiler. At present Dr. Hodge is engaged in rewriting his entire course of lectures, and has progressed as far as the subject of Original Sin. Up to this point, the questions are upon the new course. The remaining questions are upon the old course. In the new lectures, some modifications of the general outline have been made, which will account for the imperfection of this analysis.
