When I was at Grace College, I had a professor who assigned a book called, “Decide for Yourself” that was meant to be a theological workbook that gave you some basic passages that relate to a topic and then gave you a chance to respond to those passages with some guided questions as to what you could learn from them. The concept was amazing but I found the book still led the reader into some specific beliefs that the author held. I recognize this is inevitable of any book. But I really wanted to expand on that idea as I study different topics.
So, I’ve set out on a venture to begin analyzing mainstream protestant systematic theologies simply for their referenced passages on particular subjects. This will then allow me to review the relevant passages to a topic and try to decide for myself what I believe those passages are saying without any guidance other than the Holy Spirit’s. So I have taken the passages from the relevant chapters (note, because I am not reading each chapter, I may be pulling passages that may not seem immediately relevant to the topic but am including them in case there is something to the inferences pulled from these passages) of each theology text using Logos Bible Software’s “Save as a Passage” function to condense the chapter into a list. I then have attempted to find two or three texts that have a similar passage list and tried to distill them down to the most commonly cited passages to rule out some of the less quoted passages. I’m doing this with Logos’ “Merge” function in the Passage Lists feature that provides an “Intersection” of passages.
I have begun with the topic of Scripture. I will cite the text referenced, the passages cited, and then at the end will show which texts I used to distill out some of the most commonly cited passages.

Intersection of Passages
I’m providing two different intersection of passages because Grudem and Erickson’s wasn’t nearly as robust a list as Grudem and Frame’s but Grudem and Erickson’s was the best out all the other’s I tried to combine. Logos’ tool does a great job of cutting down the time of work and effort required in compiling these lists but it is still a labor-intensive process so the work hopefully will provide some benefit in determining which passages to focus in on. Grudem and Frame seem to have the most robust citations and I have not eliminated any of the passages that seemed a little perplexing in how they related to the specific topic, again because of the possible inferences one might make in regards to the topic.
