| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Dogmatic Theology |
 | | From this it follows that theology comprehends all those and only those doctrines which are to be found in the sources of faith, namely Scripture and Tradition, and which the infallible Church proposes to us. | | | Dogmatic theology, then, may be defined as the scientific exposition of the entire theoretical doctrine concerning God Himself and His external activity, based on the dogmas of the Church. | | | However, neither supernatural theology in general nor dogmatic theology in particular is sufficiently specified by its material object or its end, since natural theology also treats of God and Divine things and shows that union with God is a religious duty. |

| | Developing Theology |
| | Theology is worship, and we seek to think in a doxological manner about God, and be worshipful and evangelistic in our theology, focusing on God and on God's gospel. | | | Developing theology focuses on the gospel of Jesus Christ, the atoning work of God on the cross, and its significance for faith and life. | | | The Bible is an important foundation of this theology, and we look at biblical theology: the theology of the Bible, exegesis of Scripture, and reflections on different passages. |

| | Liberation Theology |
| | Liberation theology, a term first used in 1973 by Gustavo Gutierrez, a Peruvian Roman Catholic priest, is a school of thought among Latin American Catholics according to which the Gospel of Christ demands that the church concentrate its efforts on liberating the people of the world from poverty and oppression. | | | Biblical theology reveals that God is for the poor, but it does not teach that the poor are the actual embodiment of God in today's world. | | | "A theology of the Church in the world should be complemented by a theology of the world in the Church" (Gutierrez). |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Mystical Theology |
| | Preliminary to the study of mystical theology is a knowledge of the four ordinary forms of prayer: vocal, mental, affective, and the prayer of simplicity (see PRAYER). | | | They comprise: purity of conscience, or aversion even to the slightest sin; purity of heart, the heart being taken as the symbol of the affections, which to be pure must be free of attachments to anything that does not lead to God; purity of the spirit, i. | | | No treatise of mystical theology is complete without chapters on miracles, prophecies, revelations, visions, all of which have been treated under their respective headings. |

| | Introduction, Chapter 1, Systematic Theology -- Charles Hodge |
| | The true method in theology requires that the facts of religious experience should be accepted as facts, and when duly authenticated by Scripture, be allowed to interpret the doctrinal statements of the Word of God. | | | Although the inward teaching of the Spirit, or religious experience, is no substitute for an external revelation, and is no part of the rule of faith, it is, nevertheless, an invaluable guide in determining what the rule of faith teaches. | | | According to the former, God, or the Spirit of God, holds direct communion with the soul; and by the excitement of its religious feelings gives it intuitions of truth, and enables it to attain a kind, a degree, and an extent of knowledge, unattainable in any other way. |

| | A Concise History of Liberation Theology |
| | The first theological reflections that were to lead to liberation theology had their origins in a context of dialogue between a church and a society in ferment, between Christian faith and the longings for transformation and liberation arising from the people. | | | The door was opened for the development of a theology from the periphery dealing with the concerns of this periphery, concerns that presented and still present an immense challenge to the evangelizing mission of the church. | | | So the basis of a theology of development was undermined and the theoretical foundations for a theology of liberation were laid. |

| | Natural Theology [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] |
| | The deists relied exclusively on natural theology, on the ground that the being and attributes of God could be exhaustively ascertained from the constitution and course of the world, thus superseding the necessity of supernatural revelation. | | | This division of theology into natural and revealed had its roots in the scholastic distinction between the two truths, one derived from nature by the use of the Aristotelian logic, subject to the authority of the Church, the other, truth above reason, revealed by God but formulated and taught solely by authority of the Church. | | | On the other hand, Bishop Butler (Analogy of Religion, London, 1736) maintained that natural and revealed religion were so far one that the truths of natural theology provided a basis for the characteristic truths of the Christian faith, such as miracles, the incarnation, and redemption. |

| | Process Theology, Process Theism |
| | Though process theology has not yet become a major force in the church pew, it is very influential in the intellectual world of the seminaries and graduate schools, and no doubts is the most viable form of neoliberal theology now in the United States. | | | Thus process theology generally stands in the tradition of natural theology, and in particular is associated with the empirical theology tradition in America (Shailer Mathews, D. Macintosh, Henry Nelson Wieman) which championed the inductive, scientific approach in liberal theology. | | | Ogden argued that the "new theism" of process thought, with its world-affirming emphasis, expresses the relevance of Christian faith to secular man, who needs an ultimate ground for his "ineradicable confidence" in the final worth of human existence. |
