Millard J. Erickson's Christian Theology has become a reference book on evangelical Christian thought. His theology is based on the Scriptures, but also engages in dialogue with Church tradition and with modern theological and philosophical ideas. Erickson explains the different positions on how to understand God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, and on topics such as Sin, Salvation, the Church, the End Times, and many others. For fifteen years, Millard Erickson's systematic theology has been used in various places as a very comprehensive introduction. Now, it has also been revised to take into account not only theological changes, but also intellectual, political, economic, and social changes.
