Brilliant

Stephen Wellum’s Systematic Theology, Volume 1 stands out as a Baptist systematic theology rooted in the progressive covenantal framework. Wellum combines rigorous biblical exegesis, historical theology, and a clear method to offer a theologically rich, accessible introduction. The book emphasizes Scripture’s unfolding covenantal storyline and the triune God as the foundation for theology. Wellum carefully explains key doctrines like revelation, God’s nature, and biblical interpretation, offering a fresh approach compared to other Baptist theologies like Grudem’s. Though lengthy, the work rewards patient readers with deep insights and practical application. It promises a second volume that will complete the theological arc, making it a highly anticipated contribution to contemporary evangelical theology. This book came free from the publisher for an honest review.
