Question 1 of 5:

What is the primary focus of systematic theology?

Correct Answer: B
Explanation: Systematic theology gathers all relevant information about a topic (like angels, salvation, or Christ) and organizes it into categories. It’s very helpful, but it can sometimes risk pulling verses out of context if not handled carefully.

Question 2 of 5:

How does biblical theology primarily approach Scripture?

Correct Answer: C
Explanation: Biblical theology follows the progression of God’s revelation through history, asking what people knew and when they knew it. It helps us understand Scripture in its original context as God revealed truth over time.

Question 3 of 5:

What is a key danger of systematic theology?

Correct Answer: C
Explanation: Because systematic theology groups verses by topic, there’s a risk of removing passages from their original context and forcing them into a category they weren’t meant to address.

Question 4 of 5:

How would the original Israelite audience likely understand the “days” in Genesis 1?

Correct Answer: C
Explanation: The Israelites already understood a six-day work pattern from God’s command in Exodus. When they later read Genesis, they would naturally interpret the days of creation as the same kind of days they were living by.

Question 5 of 5:

What is the best conclusion about systematic theology and biblical theology?

Correct Answer: D
Explanation: The conversation emphasized a “both-and” approach. Each method has strengths and weaknesses, but when used together, they help provide a clearer and more accurate understanding of God’s Word.

For centuries, Christians have organized Scripture into clear doctrines through systematic theology. But are we always letting the Bible speak for itself, or are we sometimes forcing it into our own categories?

Join Eric Hovind as he sits down with Tim Chaffey to take a focused look at systematic theology. What is it, where is it helpful, and where can it lead us off track? This conversation will challenge how we approach God’s Word and how we build truth from it.

Join us as we get back to the foundation, letting Scripture define truth from the beginning so our understanding of God stands firm.
