Mathers Systematic Theology encompasses the theological subjects of Bible, God, Salvation, Spiritual Life, Prophecy including Angels, Christ, Sin, Man, Church, and Holy Spirit. "Norm W. Mathers is an adjunct professor for Liberty University in the area of systematic theology. So it's only natural that he wrote Mathers' Systematic Theology from his interpretation of Scripture. Whereas many theologians bring their philosophy and logical thinking to what they write in their systematic theology, Dr. Mathers has based his work on an inductive approach to the original languages. This means he reflects the conclusions of Scripture in his writings, and he examines all issues by Scripture. As a result, he has given the world a ready reference work to help students become grounded in the Word of God, and in the process, their faith is grounded in God Himself." Elmer L. Towns, Co Founder, Liberty University, Lynchburg, Virginia One strength of this volume is that Norm Mathers is proficient in both the original Greek and Hebrew languages, assisting in the necessary exegesis for a text of this sort. Another asset is his interest in relating the many positions throughout to both similar as well as dissimilar views. Biblical positions are defended, while alternative positions are critiqued, often in much detail. Extensive Bibliographic interaction is also provided. This allows the student to evaluate and make decisions regarding the correct biblical stance to take on a plethora of issues, guided by Mather's insightful criteria and interaction. Some questions about more philosophical matters do not change this basic conclusion. Gary R.
