Inhaltsangabe

Introducing Christian Doctrine, 2d ed. is an abridged, less technical version of Millard J. Erickson's classic Christian Theology. Pastors and students alike will find this survey of Christian theology and doctrine a practical and accessible resource with both breadth and substance. Erickson begins by explaining what theology is and then progresses through the doctrines of revelation, God, creation and providence, humanity, sin, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, the atonement and salvation, the church, and eschatology. This new edition adds pedagogical aids, includes a chapter on postmodernity, and features the pertinent chapter from Christian Theology contemporizing the gospel message. Reviews of the first edition: "Clearly written and well-outlined, this book would serve as an excellent college textbook as well as being accessible to educated laypersons." --Warren McWilliams, Religious Studies Review "This is an outstanding introduction to theology that should become a standard undergraduate textbook. It's accessible to all general readers, and I strongly recommend it to all bookstores." --John Kohlenberger III, Bookstore Journal "Unhesitatingly recommended for use in Christian colleges."--Robert A. Pyne and Gary L. Nebeker, Bibliotheca Sacra "This prominent publication is most worthy of serious study.--The Baptist Standard "Erickson's goal was to write a briefer version of his popular Christian Theology--with a view to providing a primer of and transition to more extended discussions of theology. As such, Erickson admirably achieved his purposes."--B. Dale Ellenburg, Mid-America Theological Journal
