Theology & Doxology

Before we can discuss the nature of the Christian Scriptures it is important first to understand the nature of the discussion itself. Discussing the nature of theological formulation and expression is important in at lease one major way, the topic discussed (i.e. theology) is a sacred enterprise. Theology is an act of worship as the theologian employs his/her mind in the worship of the living and true God. As such, theology, when properly done, is done in a spirit and attitude of worship through faith for without faith it is impossible to please God. It is therefore imperative for the theologian to speak of God and His word out of a heart of gratitude through Spirit enabling faith.
