A Baptist's Theology

by R. Wayne Stacy

Summary

Composed from the distinctive Baptist perspective that no one Baptist can speak with authority for another in matters of faith, A Baptist's Theology offers the thoughts of individual Baptist scholars in the hope that their beliefs might stimulate the theological reflection of other Baptists. The doctrines discussed revelation, God, persons, sin, Scripture, salvation, the church, ministry, baptism, communion, and eschatology.
Written by leaders in contemporary Baptist theological education, A Baptist’s Theology is a fresh and timely new theology on the life of Baptist thought, written by Baptists for Baptists. Here are eleven very different Baptist leaders standing on a remarkably common theological ground, not one of whom ever sacrifices his or her unique theological voice. There really is something Baptist about all of that! —Walter B. Shurden Callaway Professor of Christianity Chair, The Roberts Department of Christianity Mercer University , Macon GA Michael G.
