Lectures on Systematic Theology: Published by the Free Will Baptists in 1861 (Free Will Baptist History)

The Existence And Attributes Of God; The AuthorityAnd Doctrine Of The Scriptures; The InstitutionsAnd Ordinances Of The Gospel.Christian Theology should be studied diligently. It requires at least as much application as mathematics, languages. or any other department of study. Christian Theology should be studied patiently. The subjects presented involve numerous and great difficulties which can be overcome only by earnest, patient, persevering research. It should be studied with faith. As before intimated, if anyone needs active piety and faith, it is the theological student. Much of what he learns he must take on the authority of God, and by faith. It should be studied prayerfully. All our powers and attainments are very limited. The study of Christian 'theology is of the highest importance in disciplining, enlarging, and liberalizing the mind.
