“Volume 1 treats the nature and character of theology, Holy Scripture, the doctrine of God, the creation of man and the world, divine providence, angelology, and the doctrine of man. Volume 2 contains the doctrine of divine grace, the Person and work of Christ, the application of salvation, and concludes with justification by faith alone. It thus treats the doctrines that constitute the very core of sacred theology. Volume 3 Sets forth the Christian life (sanctification and good works), final perseverance, means of grace, Law and Gospel, Holy Baptism, the Lord’s Supper, the Christian Church, the public ministry, eternal election, and eschatology.” From the Jacket of Volume 3
