Third World theology is a theological perspective that emerged in the mid-20th century from theologians in the Global South, particularly Latin America, Africa, and Asia. It seeks to address social, political, and economic issues from the perspective of the marginalized and oppressed in these regions, emphasizing liberation and justice. It critiques traditional Western theology for its Eurocentric and colonial biases.
The two main divisions of theological study are systematic theology, which organizes beliefs in a structured manner and explores overarching themes, and practical theology, which focuses on the application of beliefs in real-world contexts such as pastoral care or social justice.
The four tools for accurately arranging systematic theology are exegesis, biblical theology, historical theology, and contemporary theology. Exegesis involves interpreting individual biblical passages. Biblical theology examines themes across the entire Bible. Historical theology studies how Christian beliefs have developed over time. Contemporary theology applies these beliefs to current contexts.
