| | Theologian, The Church Needs You - Francis Cardinal Arinze |
 | | The genuine theologian is marked by deep faith in God, in Jesus Christ the Son of God made man, and in the Church that Christ founded. | | | Above all, the theologian, apart from intellectual competence, should be in union with God, by prayer, by regular meditation and presence before the Eucharistic Christ, and by humility in being able to say sincerely at the end of all his studies and writings: "I am just a servant of God and of the Church. | | | The theologian should be a good member of the community of faith which is the Church. |

| | Theology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Theology generally assumes the truth of at least some religious beliefs and is therefore often distinguished from the philosophy of religion, which does not presume the truth of any religious beliefs. | | | To the extent that theology relies upon the religious practitioners' own terms, it is likely to be explored by those who have some kind of commitment to those terms: i.e., by those who are either practitioners of the religion, or sympathisers. | | | Drawing on the work of the American theologian Hans Frei, we may describe the relationship between theology and the philosophy of religion in the following way. |

| | St. Gregory the Theologian |
| | The Church refers to him in one of its prayers as the highest intellect, for delving into the deepest mysteries of the faith and being able to express her incomprehensible truths with a clear understanding and strict correctness. | | | With thy theologian's speech thou didst dispel the philosopher's cobwebs,/ O glorious Gregory;/ and thou dost adorn the robe of Orthodoxy woven for the Church from on high./ Wearing this, she cries out with us thy children:/ Rejoice, O Father, most excellent mind of theology. | | | Gregory the Theologian (326-389) was the son of Gregory and Nonna, a very pious woman. |

| | Instruction on the Ecclesial Vocation of the Theologian |
| | The theologian must discern in himself the origin of and motivation for his critical attitude and allow his gaze to be purified by faith. | | | The right conscience of the Catholic theologian presumes not only faith in the Word of God whose riches he must explore, but also love for the Church from whom he receives his mission, and respect for her divinely assisted Magisterium. | | | The theologian, to be faithful to his role of service to the truth, must take into account the proper mission of the Magisterium and collaborate with it. |

| | Was G.K. Chesterton a Theologian? |
| | A true theologian, for Balthasar, is one who perceives and helps to reveal the glory of God revealed in Christ. | | | The true theologian is caught up in the life of God; theology or "theo-logic", the logic of God, is something higher than human reason: "For my thoughts are not your thoughts: nor your ways my ways, says the Lord" (Is. 55:8-9). | | | He was a theologian whose thought unfolded the supreme and simple truth that the creation springs from nowhere but the love of the triune God. |

| | Pastor Paul T. McCain
Cyberbrethren: "I'm not really into theology" or "I'm no theologian, but..." |
| | Theologians are men who rightly divide God's Word, properly and carefully and faitfully distinguishing Law and Gospel, faitfully preaching and teaching that Word and fulfill the duties of their office as pastor, caring for the souls entrusted to their care with the Word of God. | | | The best theologian/pastors are men who can preach clearly and simply so that the most unlearned layman in the church can understand what they are talking about. | | | But pick up most any academic theological journal and ask yourself, "What in here is really going to serve the teaching of the Gospel?" Sadly a lot of academic theology today is just playing to the guild of scholars. |

| | Van Til the Theologian |
| | Van Til, "Bavinck the Theologian," 10; Apologetics, 2; The Defense of the Faith, 24; cf. | | | Louis Berkhof and others fail to include the doctrine of Scripture in their major dogmatic works, relegating that doctrine to supplementary or "introductory" volumes, since they feel, apparently, that the doctrine of Scripture belongs to "prolegomena" and not to theology. | | | Whatever may be said on behalf of this procedure, a "Van Tillian theologian" will wish to guard strongly against any implication that "prolegomena" is some kind of autonomous rational activity which precedes the believer's submission of his mind to God's Word. |

| | The Role of the Theologian |
| | Thus the theologian must be a guardian of true religion and not let it become complacent. | | | The important role of the theologian is to challenge others to live their faith authentically. | | | This criticism is aimed at those who take the articles of faith and develop them rational within their minds instead of seeing how they should be lived out in the current age. |

| | John Calvin The Theologian, by B. B. Warfield |
| | In one word, he was distinctly a Biblical theologian, or, let us say it frankly, by way of eminence "the Biblical theologian of his age." Whither the Bible took him, thither he went:where scriptural declarations failed him, there he stopped short. | | | I am afraid I shall have to ask you at the outset to disabuse your minds of a very common impression, namely, that Calvin's chief characteristics as a theologian were on the one hand, audacity--perhaps I might even say effrontery--of speculation; and on the other hand, pitilessness of logical development, cold and heartless scholasticism. | | | And above everything else he deserves, therefore, the great name of the theologian of the Holy Spirit. |

| | Among his many works are orations on the subject of the Trinity, given in Constantinople, which won for him such acclaim that the Council of Ephesus later accorded him the rare title of "Theologian" (given only to two others in the history of the Church --the Apostle St. John, and St. Symeon the New Theologian). | | | But under St. Gregory, who was called to Constantinople in 379 by the Spanish Orthodox Emperor of the East, Theodosius, Orthodoxy began to revive and gain ascendency over the errors of Arianism. | | | His orations and writings are noted for the depth of their theological insight and a certain poetic soaring above the things of earth, as in this passage from his "Second Theological Oration": |
