Fitzwater, P.B. – Christian Theology

Christian Theology

A Systematic Presentation

by P. B. Fitzwater, D. D.

Summary

This is a 69 chapter systematic theology book which has sections on Holy Scriptures, Theology Proper, Anthropology, Deontology (duties), Soteriology, Ecclesiology, and Eschatology.




Note that I did not follow his outlining through the work. It appears to me that some of his points are miss numbered. I do not think that there is material missing, just simply when he has a list of a, b, c, points under major point I., a lot of times he skips listing the a and goes directly into the text of a, and then list “b.” which causes some confusion. I did not attempt to fix this.

Evaluation by David Cox

Fitzwater was a doctrines teacher at Moody Bible Institute, so based on that I would suppose that the present work is very sound. It is very detailed so, I would consider this to be an excellent systematic theology. I would recommend this work. Continue reading →
