Although there is a thorough and profound appreciation for Calvin, Luther, Edwards, et al, who were systematic theologians. In <EM>practice</EM>, many of the profs follow more of a BT approach. More accurately, they/we follow an integrated approach that progresses from Exegesis to BT to ST to PhT (Philosophical) to PT (Pastoral). Rather than adopting an either/or approach in which we have to choose, they/we see each theological discipline as important in its own right, in its proper progressive stage.<BR/><BR/>Though I recognize the limits of ST, i'm not ready to throw the baby out with the bath water.<BR/><BR/>Kudos to you.

Yes, we learn about theological systems, and no one gets away with having <I>no</I> systematic categories. But, learning to let the text speak, in its own particular way, is truly bringing me a deeper revelation of God and renewed faith. <BR/><BR/>The Anabaptists are uniquely situated to speak to the emerging postmodern culture. It's exciting to see this tiny voice speak so powerfully across denominational lines.amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11877785002550838754noreply@blogger.com
