Abstract: "We're all theologians of one sort or another," says author Charles Ryrie. "Theology simply means thinking about God and expressing those thoughts in some way." Within these pages, you'll find: A basic handbook of theology written in plain English for every Christian; A systematic overview of the Bible's major doctrines; A glossary of theological terms; A list of key Scripture passages for the study of theology. Reading this book will help you begin to think about how God wants to conform you to the image of Christ. Designed with personal application in mind, Basic Theology will provide you with sound theology, which in turn produces holy living. - Back cover.
