谁想成为神学家? 许多人对"神学"这个词很反感，认为它涉及关于教义细枝末节的枯燥无益的争论。他们更倾向于关注圣经的基要真理，甚至宣称"不要信经，只要基督"。 但正如史普罗所说的，人人都是神学家。这是因为每当我们思考圣经的教导并试图去理解它们时，就是在从事神学研究。因此，重要的是，我们要用经过时间考验的正确解经方法，将圣经的不同教导系统化地整合起来，从而建立一套基于真理且前后一致的神学体系。 这正是史普罗博士在《人人都是神学家》中所做的研究工作。这本书绝非关于教义细节的枯燥讨论。相反，史普罗博士再次展现了他化繁为简的标志性能力，系统概述了基督教信仰的基本真理，向我们重新阐明了神的本质属性，以及他为他的子民在今生和来世所成就的一切。
