More About This Title Systematic Theology
- English
English
In this concise, one-volume systematic theology, celebrated scholar Anthony Thiselton comprehensively covers the spectrum of Christian doctrine with an eye to practical application for Christian discipleship.
Written with students and busy ministers in mind, this book is readable and accessible, comprising fifteen chapters of relatively equal length, with each chapter containing five evenly balanced subsections for teaching and learning convenience.
Rather than setting out an abstract system, Thiselton explores theology as a living, organic whole. The book thus includes biblical foundations, historical thought, contemporary writers, and practical implications. Expertly incorporating biblical exegesis, philosophy, conceptual grammar, and hermeneutics, this work is the most succinct multidisciplinary systematic theology available.

“Practical, devotional, and systematic. . . . A volume grounded in biblical exegesis, interacting with historical figures, and interdisciplinary in orientation. This wide-ranging work throughout will surprise even those familiar with systematic theology.”
Lois Malcolm
—Luther Seminary
“Thiselton has written a wonderfully concise systematic theology that covers all the classic theological topics. . . . From as broad an interdisciplinary perspective as possible, it engages biblical exegesis and major thinkers through the centuries, mindful throughout of practical implications for Christian discipleship and devotion. I highly recommend this book not only for systematic theology courses but also for anyone wanting to understand more fully what lies at the heart of Christian theology.”
John Webster

Anthony Thiselton’s Systematic Theology guides its readers through the elements of Christian doctrine — their biblical grounds, their philosophical dimensions, and their historical forms — with learning, clarity of mind, and authority.”
Oliver D. Crisp
— Fuller Theological Seminary
“Learned and judicious, this one-volume systematic theology combines the breadth and depth of Thiselton’s earlier work in biblical studies, hermeneutics, and Christian doctrine with his years of classroom teaching, resulting in a work that is accessible and eminently readable. His evenhanded and charitable approach will commend this book to a wide audience. I highly recommend it.”
