Lutheran Dogmatics: A Systematic Account

By Jack D. Kilcrease

Grounded in Holy Scripture, the ecumenical creeds, and the Lutheran confessions, Lutheran Dogmatics offers a comprehensive presentation of Christian doctrine for the twenty-first century. Jack D. Kilcrease retrieves the evangelical-catholic riches of the Lutheran tradition while engaging the intellectual and cultural challenges of a post-Christian and postmodern age.

The book's wide-ranging treatment of Christian doctrine encompasses

- the nature of theology and Christian truth claims;
- the triune God, creation, and humanity;
- the person and saving work of Jesus Christ;
- justification, election, and the distinction between law and gospel; and
- the church, sacraments, and last things.

Throughout, Kilcrease demonstrates how distinctively Lutheran teachings, including the theology of the cross and the hidden and revealed God, provide constructive resources for contemporary theology.

Expansive, historically informed, and confessionally faithful, this volume will serve professors, seminarians, graduate students, pastors, and others seeking a systematic presentation of Lutheran faith and teaching.
