5.0 out of 5 stars
Great outline and reference,
This review is from: Practical Christian Theology (Paperback)
In this amazing outline study of the Great Doctrines of the Christian Faith author Floyd H. Barackman does a thorough job of examining each doctrine and the Scriptural basis for it. I've seen several books on Biblical and Church doctrine but none have covered as many doctrines in as much detail in a single volume. This is possible mainly because of the outline format of the book. Mr. Barackman does not spend a lot of time discussing the details and implications of each doctrine but basically states the position and provides the Bible verses that support that position. He also mentions other doctrinal positions and why he feels that they are incorrect (also with Bible verses to support his position). Just who is Floyd H. Barackman that he should be writing a book like this? He was an Instructor of Systematic Theology at Practical Bible Training School in New York where he taught for twenty-five years. He has pastored several Baptist churches and authored several Bible study materials. With this strong Baptist background the doctrines have a decidedly Baptist slant at times, but each position is still put forward professionally and the Biblical basis supplied. As a single volume reference on Christian doctrine "Practical Christian Theology: Examining the Great Doctrines of the Faith" is a monumental work and very highly recommended.

One of the best Systematic Theology texts available!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Practical Christian Theology: Examining the Great Doctrines of the Faith (Paperback)
This is one of the best texts in Systematic Theology from a conservative dispensational Baptist perspective. It is one of the few texts in this subject which takes on certain practical issues that other authors have ignored. It is well documented and well researched, and would make a great addition to any Baptist Pastor's or Theologian's library.

Good as reference if you agree, not great for learning,
By Noah G Tutak (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Practical Christian Theology (Paperback)
As other reviewers have stated, this is a good reference tool - assuming you agree theologically with the author. If you are interested in learning about theology tough, as I am, I would look elsewhere. This book is truly more of an outline with scripture references and a certain amount of justification, but primarly useful as a reference tool. I would be more interested if the author provided more detailed exegesis to support his positions and explained them more thoroughly, rather than just making assertions without fully supporting them.
