Introduction to Christian Theology
Overview
In this volume, H. Orton Wiley and Paul T. Culbertson adapt Wiley’s three-volume Christian Theology into this brief, yet substantial, book. It is useful both as a textbook for introductory theology courses and a teaching tool for church congregations. Packed with Scripture references, it presents the Wesleyan-Arminian perspective in a devotional tone with practical emphasis.

“Christian theology is an exposition of the facts and realities of a divine revelation.” (Page 17)

“Anything that falls short of an actual cleansing from all sin or the death of the ‘old man’ is anti-Wesleyan and anti-scriptural.” (Page 302)
“Second, the election of nations or other bodies of men to special religious privileges” (Page 259)
