'''Systematic Theology''' is a discipline of theological study, that  is the study God. <br />
+
'''Systematic theology''' is a discipline of Christian [[theology]] that formulates an orderly, consistent and coherent account of the Christian faith and beliefs.

It addresses theological topics one by one (e.g. God, sin, salvation) and attempts to summarize all the biblical teaching.<ref>[http://www.theopedia.com/systematic-theology Systematic theology], Theopedia</ref>
    
A new Christian naturally hungers to be taught, like a new baby hungers and thirsts for milk  (I Pet. 2:2).  Too many Christians outgrow this and think they know enough.  All Christians should know Bible doctrine, not just the preachers and theologians.  Ignorance is no virtue.  God often says, “I do not want you to be ignorant”  (Rom. 1:13, 11:25; I Cor. 1:8; I Thess. 4:14. Cf. 2 Pet. 3:8).  Willful ignorance is sin (2 Pet. 3:5).  There are no acceptable excuses, such as “I’m too busy, I’m not a great intellectual, It’s not that important, etc.”  Every Christian can and should have a strategic grasp of the Bible and basic Christian doctrine.<br />
