Note: Reading ease score: 58.8 (10th to 12th grade). Somewhat difficult to read.
Summary: "Systematic Theology (Volume 2 of 3)" by Augustus Hopkins Strong is a scholarly theological text written in the early 20th century. This volume focuses on the doctrine of man, emphasizing the nature and attributes of God, the act of creation, and the implications of these beliefs on the essence of humanity and the concepts of good and evil. The text is structured to serve theological students, providing detailed analysis and debates surrounding core doctrines." The opening of this work delves into the nature of God and the concept of creation, exploring what it means to create and the theological implications of divine creation as opposed to theories that posit dualism or emanation. Strong defines creation as a free act of the triune God, emphasizing that creation involves the origination of the universe from non-existence without the use of pre-existing materials. He presents a robust argument against competing theories, seeking to establish the doctrinal foundation for understanding not only God's nature but also humanity’s original state, the implications of sin, and the relationship between man and the divine. Through scriptural references and philosophical discourse, Strong sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of systematic theology. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
