These early confessions highlight the orthodox pedigree and unique features of Baptist life and teaching.Herman Bavinck, The Wonderful Works of God, 1921: Also published as Our Reasonable Faith, this work is one of the greatest single-volume systematic theologies of all time. In it, Bavinck scripturally and methodically unpacks the fundamental doctrines of the Reformed tradition while guided by the principle of his opening sentence: “God, and God alone, is man’s highest good.” Buy here.Karl Barth, Church Dogmatics (a selection), 1932-67: Compiled from lectures delivered over the course of his career, Church Dogmatics represents Barth’s crowning achievement.
