The Great Doctrines of the Bible

"The Great Doctrines of the Bible" by William Evans is a theological study written in the early 20th century. This volume serves as an instructional text delving into key Christian doctrines, including the nature of God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, salvation, and the church, among others. The book is designed primarily for students and laypersons seeking to deepen their understanding of essential Christian beliefs through a scriptural foundation. At the start of the book, Evans outlines his intent to present these doctrines in a manner that encourages readers to study them alongside the Bible itself. The opening portion elaborates on the "Doctrine of God", discussing themes such as the existence, nature, and attributes of God, while addressing common objections like atheism and agnosticism. Evans emphasizes that the existence of God is assumed in the Scriptures and highlights various philosophical arguments that support the notion of a divine being. The narrative is focused on establishing a clear understanding of God's nature and attributes, such as omniscience, omnipotence, and holiness, which sets the groundwork for exploring the identity and work of Jesus Christ in subsequent chapters.
