Theoretical-Practical Theology, Volume 5
The Application of Redemption and the Church
About this book
Petrus van Mastricht's Theoretical-Practical Theology presents one of the most comprehensive methods of treating Christian doctrine. In it, Mastricht treats every theological topic according to a four-part approach: exegetical, dogmatic, elenctic, and practical. As a body of divinity, it combines a rigorous, scholastic treatment of doctrine with the pastoral aim of preparing people to live for God through Christ. Students and pastors will find it a valuable model for moving from the text of Scripture to doctrinal formulation that will edify the people of God.
Volume 5, The Application of Redemption and the Church, examines how the covenantal grace procured by Jesus Christ touches all who experience union and communion with Him in faith. Mastricht's outline of the personal application of redemption embraces calling, regeneration, conversion, union with Christ, justification, adoption, sanctification, and glorification. This is followed with the context of that application, treating the nature of the church, its ministers, its sacraments, church discipline, and church governance. This volume helps us understand the significance of personal salvation and Christ's assembly of the saved—a fascinating look at the redemptive connection between soteriology and ecclesiology.
