Misconceptions, stereotypes, myths and false impressions about theology abound- even within Christian circles. We all need theology. Theology seeks to clarify and articulate Christian doctrine. There is more.
Theological reflection ought to foster godly spirituality and obedient discipleship. Indeed good theology will make believers stronger, better informed and consequently more effective disciples.
We engage in theology because theological reflection grounds our lives in biblically informed Christian truth. It fosters maturity so that we may become stable believers in the fleeting times we live in.
Theology is also a check on the hocus-pocus that is being auctioned by many errorists in the body of Christ, who display the fickleness of their imaginations and concocted experience as standards for what is true. Theology exposes and confounds such folly and futile fancies.
