Volume One of the second edition of Garrett's well-known survey of systematic theology. Famous for its completeness and objectivity, this volume has been called a 'gold mine of useful information'. It is one of the most comprehensive contemporary studies of Christian beliefs ever written. This volume covers: Revelation and the Bible, The Trinity, Creation, Humankind and Sin, and The Person of Jesus Christ. Garrett, who holds earned doctorates from Harvard and South-western Baptist Seminary has taught theology for over forty years. His approach starts with divine revelation as recorded in the Bible, but also includes a presentation of Christian tradition and Christian experience, citing the views of theologians from the Patristic Age to the present.
