Systematic Theology: Witness

This is the third and final in a three-volume trilogy, and because its argument is cumulative, readers may wish to begin not here but with Volume I, Ethics. If they have done so, continuing through Doctrine: Systematic Theology, Volume II, much that may seem to beginners doubtful here will have already been made secure. Yet there is no fixed the order of reading, so a word of present explanation about the entire project may again be in order. This Systematic Theology addresses first of all Christians who are neither strictly Catholic nor strictly Protestant (e.g., Lutheran or Reformed), but who fall into a numerous if ill-defined third group. For reasons given in Volume I, I call this third group 'baptists' (note the lowercase b), but others prefer other names. In any case, this work is meant to reach out to often overlooked believers, but not to exclude the better-defined others: if rightful Catholics and proper Protestants find these pages helpful, I could more pleased.
