Description:
In one systematic volume, James Boice provides a comprehensive overview of Christian theology. Laypeople, students, and pastors will all benefit from this rich source that covers all of the major doctrines of the Christian faith.
With scholarly rigor and a pastor's heart, Boice carefully opens the topics of the nature of God, the character of his natural and special revelation, the Fall, and the person and work of Christ. He then goes on to consider the work of the Holy Spirit in justification and sanctification. The book closes with careful discussions of the church and the last things.
In this revised edition of a formerly four-volume work, Boice maintains a remarkable practicality and thoroughness that have made this a standard reference and textbook of evangelical faith.
