Systematic Theology (Volume 1 of 3)

"Systematic Theology (Volume 1 of 3)" by Augustus Hopkins Strong is a theological book crafted to support theology students, taking a broad approach to the key beliefs of Christianity. This initial book is all about the Doctrine of God and looks at important points such as if God exists and what God is like, the idea of the Trinity, and how humanity and God connect. In the beginning, there's a preface where the author talks about why he updated his old book from 1886, highlighting that theology is important for understanding God and that having a strong grasp of Christian teachings is key to building character. The work explains that theology is both learning about God and studying how God and the world interact, making the case that knowing God is real, that we can understand God, and that God has revealed things to us are essential ideas that the book will explore more fully.
