Reformed Dogmatics Quotes

“Theology requires disciplined preparation in the arts more broadly. There is no admission to the temple of theology except by way of the study of the arts. Indispensable to the practitioner of the science of theology is philosophical, historical, and linguistic preparatory training. This equips one for the task of building a theological system organically from the whole of Scripture in its literary diversity. Then follows the task of intellectually mining the material gathered from Scripture and recapitulating it into a meaningful system of thought in the language of the day.”
― Herman Bavinck, Reformed Dogmatics
