A Baptist's Theology

Composed from the distinctive Baptist perspective that no one Baptist can speak with authority for another in matters of faith, A Baptist's Theology offers the thoughts of individual Baptist scholars in the hope that their beliefs might stimulate the theological reflection of other Baptists. The doctrines discussed are: revelation, God, persons, sin, Scripture, salvation, the church, ministry, baptism, communion, and eschatology.

Written by leaders in contemporary Baptist theological education, A Baptist’s Theology is a fresh and timely new theology on the life of Baptist thought, written by Baptists for Baptists.

Here are eleven very different Baptist leaders standing on a remarkably common theological ground, not one of whom ever sacrifices his or her unique theological voice. There really is something Baptist about all of that!
