Theology proper

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Theology proper is the sub-discipline of systematic theology which deals specifically with the being, attributes and works of God. In Christian theology, and within the Trinitarian setting, this study includes: Paterology (the study of God the Father),[1] Christology (the study of Jesus Christ), and Pneumatology (the study of the Holy Spirit).[2]
