Tackling the Systematic Theologies (a 4 year plan)
What wonders are in store in a good Systematic Theology, which can go by other names. I feel i need to focus on just one at a time, and this would be a theological way to keep busy till the rest of Mastricht's 7 volume opus is all released, it's been well nigh a whole year since the last volume was released, they better not be lacking funding, poor guys!! So let's say it'll take 4 more years till they get that done, 4 years with the following:
2024
1. The Beeke & Smalley ST which is user friendly and in depth. 4 volumes all over 1,000 pages each, can you see me drooling?
2025
2. R.L. Dabney's ST -- a classic one volumer
3. John Frame's A Theology of Lordship 4 volume series
2026
4. Thomas Aquinas' Summa Theologica
2027
5. Herman Bavinck's Reformed Dogmatics, 4 delicious volumes
2028
6. and here i declare that this year 2028 i will play fast and loose with Petrus van Mastricht's Theoretical-Practical Theology, a work so bursting at the seams with perfection that Jonathan Edwards said it was better than Turretin's Institutes of Elenctic Theology!! Such an earth shattering conclusion to a 4 year theology reading plan i don't know how it could possibly be topped unless it would be that 10 volume work by Amandus Polanus, which is supposedly being slowly translated by someone on Puritan Board!!
