(Excerpt from Apologetics, or a System of Christian Eviden...)
Excerpt from Apologetics, or a System of Christian Evidence Christ Jesus. Except He had come from the world beyond and told us things which otherwsie would have been un known, our knowledge had become limited and our salvation impossible. If we only knew and were sure in regard to these things, some answer; but one thing is certain, that if the Bible does not make us certain, no other book will, and the reading of the words of Jesus is overpowering. When we study comparatively the ethnic religions and the sayings of their best men, we feel that Christianity is the climax in religion and Christ is the only Master. The best apology of the Bible is the Bible, and the best apologist of Christ is He Himself. If the New Testament would be constantly and prayerfully read by inquirers, there would be no need of Christian apologies, but as things are, both Christian evi dence and Apologetics are necessary and useful. Even if we must regret the paucity of thorough-paced Bible students and good readers of the Scriptures, we re j oice in the fact that there is no book within the bounds of Christianity as much read as the Bible and especially the New Testament. When the number of readers of books like Paine's The Age of Reason grow less and less, the Bible gains a more and more extended circle of devoted friends. The modern attacks on the Bible have proved what a strong fortress the Bible is. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

(Excerpt from Christian Dogmatics and Notes on the History...)
Excerpt from Christian Dogmatics and Notes on the History of Dogma Space forbids mention of the leading books in general Theology, Dogmatics and History Of Dogma studied during more than half a century Of reading in four languages. In the preparation of this handbook original sources have been used as far as available, but it has not been found desirable to encumber the text with a great mass Of notes and references. The book is not based upon another, but with the exception of terms and quoted definitions it is an attempt at presenting the result Of assimilation and investigation with the Object previously stated. It is my earnest hope that this manual of Christian Dogmatics may serve as a guide for devoted students of Scripture and Of our Lutheran Confessions, and an aid in the faithful exposition of both.

Conrad Emil Lindberg was born on June 9, 1852 in Jonkoping, Sweden.
Lindberg received his early schooling in the Gymnasium, in Sweden. In 1871, with the aid of friends, he came to the United States to study at Augustana College and Theological Seminary, then located at Paxton, Illinois. In two years he completed the theological course, but being too young to be ordained he continued his studies at Mount Airy Lutheran Theological Seminary, Philadelphia, where he remained until 1876. He also studied at the University of Pennsylvania.
At eighteen Lindberg began to preach. In 1874 he was ordained to the Lutheran ministry by the Augustana Synod. In 1879 he was called to the Gustavus Adolphus Church in New York City, where for eleven years he served as pastor and as president of the New York Conference of the Augustana Synod. In 1890 he was called to be professor of systematic theology at the Augustana College and Theological Seminary, which had been removed to Rock Island, Illinois. From 1901 to 1910 he was vice-president, and from 1920 until his death, dean of the institution. He was also vice-president of the Augustana Synod (1899 - 1907), and a member of the Augustana Synod Home and Foreign Mission Board (1899 - 1913).
He was a diligent student throughout his whole life, and the fact that he was a bachelor rendered it possible for him to adhere closely to a fixed schedule of devotions and study; his whole life, as well as his theology, was pervaded by a spirit of deep mysticism and reverence. Although at different times, he taught in practically every theological field, his chief work was done in dogmatics and apologetics.
In 1898 he published Encheiridion I Dogmatik Jämte Dogmhistoriska Anmärkninger. This was later expanded into a larger book, Christian Dogmatics and Notes on the History of Dogma, which in 1922 was issued in an English translation by Reverend C. E. Hoffsten. It was adopted as a textbook in Lutheran theological seminaries both in America and Europe, and attained a position of established authority. In 1928 a revised edition appeared. In the field of apologetics, he wrote Apologetics, or a System of Christian Evidence (1917, 1926). Unlike Lutheran theologians who have come to America in their maturity, Lindberg apparently had no fear of issuing his works in the English language. Besides these major productions, he also wrote a number of smaller books, and articles and reviews in church magazines. He was chief editor of the Augustana Theological Quarterly from 1900 to 1902, and after his retirement from the editorship, due to other pressing duties, he still continued to contribute to the publication. He died just as he had finished his last book, Beacon Lights of Prophecy in the Latter Days, issued posthumously in 1930.
Lindberg contributed greatly to church literature, newspapers, magazines, theological reviews, and journals. He wrote in the total14 books. His principle work was a textbook about dogmatics, which won recognition from reviewers and educators from both the United States and Sweden. In 1901 he was made Knight of the Royal Order of the North Star by the King of Sweden and in 1924, Commander of the Royal Order of Vasa.
