Here’s a little fun for those of you who’re familiar with Wayne Grudem.

Lyrics:

Why, this man is thematic, he’s charismatic, he’s systematic…
Why he’s Wayne Grudem! (Wayne Grudem)
He did not author Scripture but provides a clearer picture – Oh Yeah!
(Keep reading, whoa keep reading)
Wayne may not be Jesus but he writes mean exegesis – Oh Yeah!
(I’ll buy a copy, I’ll kill to buy a copy)
You put it on the floor and it props open your door,
Or if you need to sit – you can climb on top of it – with Wayne Grudem
Go, go, go, go, go , go, go, go, go, go
Go Wayne Grudem with your intellectual writing style,
(Wayne Grudem, go Wayne Grudem)
Go Wayne Grudem you make hard doctrines less of a trial
(Wayne Grudem, go Wayne Grudem)
You are extreme, but God’s supreme, oh Wayne Grudem
Go, go, go, go, go , go, go, go, go, go
(There are) many heresies which we now clearly see – Oh Yeah!
(oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Despite him being bald, hundred-thousand copies sold – Oh yeah!
(oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
His six appendices leave you praying on your knees
Although he’s not inerrant, he’s a heresy deterrent – Wayne Grudem
Go, go, go, go, go , go, go, go, go, go
Go Wayne Grudem with your intellectual writing style,
(Wayne Grudem, go Wayne Grudem)
Go Wayne Grudem you make hard doctrines less of a trial
(Wayne Grudem, go Wayne Grudem)
You are extreme, but God’s supreme, oh Wayne Grudem
Grudem, Grudem, Grudem, Grudem
Grudem, Grudem, Grudem, Grudem Yeah!

Books by Wayne Grudem

Systematic Theology: An Introduction to Biblical Doctrine By Wayne Grudem / Zondervan The Christian church has a long tradition of systematic theology, that is, studying theology and doctrine organized around fairly standard categories such as the Word of God, redemption, and Jesus Christ. This introductory textbook on systematic theology has several distinctive features: A strong emphasis on the scriptural basis for each doctrine and teaching Clear writing, with technical terms kept to a minimum A contemporary approach, treating subjects of special interest to the church today A friendly tone, appealing to the emotions and the spirit as well as the intellect Frequent application to life Resources for worship with each chapter Bibliographies with each chapter that cross-reference subjects to a wide range of other systematic theologies

Christian Beliefs: Twenty Basics Every Christian Should Know By Wayne A. Grudem, edited by Elliot Grudem / Zondervan God doesn’t call every Christian to go off to seminary, but there are certain matters of doctrine—that is, the church’s teaching—that every Christian simply must know. Theology is important because what we believe affects how we live. If you’re a relatively new believer in Jesus, or if you’re a more mature Christian looking for a quick brush-up on basics of the faith, Christian Beliefs is for you. This readable guide to twenty basic Christian beliefs is a condensation of Grudem’s Systematic Theology. He and his son, Elliot, have boiled down the essentials of Christian theology for the average layperson and made them both clear and applicable to life. You will learn about the Bible, the characteristics of God, what it means that we are created in the image of God, what God has done for us in Christ, the purpose of the church, and much more. Each chapter includes questions for personal review or group discussion.

Bible Doctrine By Wayne Grudem / Zondervan How do we know the Bible is God’s Word? What is sin and where did it come from? How is Jesus fully God and fully man? What are spiritual gifts? When and how will Christ return? If you’ve asked questions like these, then “systematic theology” is no abstract term. It’s an approach to finding answers every Christian needs to know. Abridged from Grudem’s Systematic Theology and made accessible to the average reader, Bible Doctrine covers the same essentials of the faith, giving you a firm grasp on seven key topics: The Doctrine of the Word of God The Doctrine of God The Doctrine of Man The Doctrine of Christ The Doctrine of the Application of Redemption The Doctrine of the Church The Doctrine of the Future Like Systematic Theology, this book is marked by its clarity, its strong scriptural emphasis, its thoroughness in scope and detail, and its treatment of such timely topics as spiritual warfare and the gifts of the Spirit. But you don’t need to have had several years of Bible school to reap the full benefits of Bible Doctrine. It’s easy to understand—and it’s packed with solid, biblical answers to your most important questions.
