Synopsis

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.

Approximately half of the book deals with Genesis 3:15 and this tension between the two humanities being played out thru all of scripture. The later half deals with how Christians should eng......more

Goodreads review by Emmanuel on July 15, 2021

By no means an abridgment of Augustine's actual work, Boice nonetheless presents an accessible treatment of a few of Augustine's primary points and applies it to the modern day United States and some of the most prominent ethical issues. It lacks much of the theological and philosophical rigor of Ci......more

Good, not great. Boice advocates for something that Augustine originally theorized. There are essentially two cities in the world with two different loves. A city of God and a city of man. A love for God and a love for man. Boice accurately surmises that Christians find themselves with one foot firm......more
