The author of this classic work on Protestant Theology, A.A. Hodge (1823-1886), served as Professor in Systematic Theology at Princeton Seminary from 1877 until his death in 1886. Outlines of Theology was first published in 1860.
In reviewing A. A. Hodge's Outlines in Theology (1878) C.H. Spurgeon once stated: "We commend the Outlines of Theology to all who would be well instructed in the faith. It is the standard text-book of our college. We differ from its teachings upon baptism, but in almost everything else we endorse Hodge to the letter." [emphasis added] In agreement with Spurgeon's enthusiasm, we believe this book should be on every person's shelf.
