"Wayne Grudem's Systematic Theology is an unbiased systematic theology text, the best I have seen in recent years in terms of appropriate organization, clarity, and willingness to address the most prominent topics of today. It is an admirable amalgamation of scholarship and inspirational elements rarely achieved in academic books." Paige Patterson, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary
"Systematic Theology is outstanding for its extraordinary juxtapositions. It is penetrating yet not confusing; frank and clear yet not thoughtless or exaggerated; easy to read yet not superficial; rooted in the Bible, indeed saturated with the Bible, yet not careless with the text or verbose; devout and reverent yet not uncritical or naive; practical yet not trendy or sentimental; broad yet without exaggerating minutiae; a book for the church yet not localist or sectarian. I expect to be turning to it for decades." John Piper, Bethlehem Baptist Church, Minneapolis
