Marrow as Consummation

Yesterday I inspiringly turned to a volume of theology that I'd acquired several months ago. Now I'll use it as the influence to consummate and consolidate my recent theological learning. The book is William Ames' Marrow of Theology. The way it's written, its unique structure, it's compactness, its completeness, it is a contained work of theology really like no other, and it is on-the-mark Calvinist (i.e. Biblical) doctrine. I've come to an end of studying theology, yet I used a thousand different sources and influences to do it, now it will all be brought together and consolidated by this work by Ames.

Willaim Ames live from 1576 to 1633. His Marrow was the premier work of systematic theology of the Puritans. Of all my theology works I've acquired over the years this one work by Ames always seemed unique. Now I know what it's use is for, at least in my case.

It was fortunate to first acquire this book and then to come to it at this time (all, though, part of the playing out of the learning arc of this particular project of learning theology). Now I have a way to consummate the effort and have it completed.
