Excerpt from Systematic Theology: A Compendium and Commonplace-Book Designed for the Use of Theological Students
To three living persons the author desires to express his peculiar obligation. Two of these are his former teachers President Noah Porter, of Yale College, and President Ezekiel G. Robinson, of Brown University; to the former he owes his first insight into philosophy; to the latter his first insight into theology. The third name is that of Professor William G. T. Shedd, of the Union Theological Seminary, from whose various writings the author has for many years derived constant stimulus and suggestion. The sincerity and warmth of this threefold recognition are not lessened by the fact that the views presented in this volume are in some respects peculiar to the author.
The usefulness of the work, it is hoped, will be greatly increased by the very copious indexes of subjects, of authors, and of Scripture passages. For the preparation of these, thanks are due to the Rev. Robert Kerr Eccles, M. D., recently a student of the Rochester Theological Seminary, but now pastor of the Baptist Church in Salem, Ohio, with whom the work has been a labor of love. For the good measure of typographical accuracy which has been secured, grateful acknowledgements are made to Mr. Charles Augustus Strong, the author's son and pupil.

Excerpt from Systematic Theology: A Compendium and Commonplace-Book Designed for the Use of Theological Students
The writers referred to are not mentioned as authorities: it has been the aim, in general, to indicate not only the authors whose views are favored, but also those who best represent the views combated, in the text. The editions used are those found in the Library of the Seminary for whose students the text-book was originally written; fortunately these editions are, in general, the latest.
It has been thought well not only to give references to the best writers on the subjects treated, but also to introduce brief quotations from them, with a view to familiarize the reader with their general doctrinal position and to stimulate him to further reading of the works themselves. Many of these quotations are followed by explanatory or critical remarks, and in the smaller print considerable space is not unfrequently given to notes upon matters that could not be fully treated in the text, such as the history of systematic theology, the authorship of the Pentateuch, heathen systems of morality, heathen trinities, the Mosaic history of creation, the Sabbath, objections to the evolutionary theory of the origin of man, a tabular view of theories of imputation, notes on depravity, guilt, and penalty, the humanity of Christ, the Old Testament sacrifices, the doctrine of election, union with Christ, ordination to the ministry, the immortality of the soul, and the second coming of Christ.
It will be noticed that books are sometimes referred to which can hardly be called the best sources of information: in such cases the intention has often been to help the theological student to use intelligently the books he has; in other words, to enable the possessor of few books, and those not the best, to get from them all the good he can.
Attention is called to the element of scriptural exposition that has been admitted.
