Systematic Theology - Paperback

by Louis Berkhof (Author), Richard A. Muller (Foreword by)

An enduring theological classic now available in paperback

This complete edition of Louis Berkhof's magnum opus includes both his Introductory Volume to Systematic Theology and his classic Systematic Theology. In his monumental treatment of the doctrines of the Reformed faith, Berkhof covers the full range of theology in traditional systematic fashion, examining the doctrines of God, anthropology, Christology, soteriology, ecclesiology, and eschatology. The result is a comprehensive work written in a scholarly yet simple style.

The foreword by Richard A. Muller explains the relation and importance of Berkhof's prolegomena to the rest of his systematic theology, while complete indexes, thorough bibliographies, and questions for further study make this edition ideal for students. Since its original publication in 1939, Berkhof's Systematic Theology has remained the most influential twentieth-century compendium of Reformed theology.
