Excerpt from An Introduction to Theology: Its Principles, Its Branches, Its Results, and Its LiteratureBeing, however, an introduction to Theology, it is only a contribution which is made towards a complete exposition. All that this book pretends to do is to show that the various branches of theology are branches of one tree (some almost dead and sterile, and others vigorously alive and fruitful), which, having its root in the nature of man, also breathes its nutriment from the heaven of heavens.And let another remark be made. The treatment of the whole subject is manifestly unequal, so large a part of the whole being devoted to the study Of Biblical Theology. At the moment this inequality is unavoidable: so much more is known of the Bible than of any other branch of theology.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
