Attempts to apply systematic theology to practical ministry. These might include education, missions, pastoral care, etc. B.By subject.Systematic Theology is broken up into several subjects. The number can vary, but here are ten to consider.1. Theology Proper. The study of God.2. Bibliology. The study of Bible3. Christology. The study of Jesus Christ4. Pneumatology. The study of the Holy Spirit.5. Soterology. The study of salvation/redemption6. Angeology. The study of angels (and demons)7. Hamartiology/Theodicy. The study of sin and suffering.8. Eschatology.
