The Religious Life of the Theological Student

Warfield reminds the theological student, that their study is their calling, and the great privilege it is to study theology, while reminding them that their study is not a mere """"work"""" but a religious experience in itself. He also encourages the student to be fully involved in the local church and college community, attending all stated meetings. \\nHe also corrects against various false dichotomies presented to object against theological education. A minister should be both a student and a man of prayer. A minister should be both a theologian (academic) and a pastor (caring for souls), there needs not to be a choice between them. \\nStudying for 3-4 years at a college can seem (and is) difficult, but this helps draw us back to the God we worship and serve. Very helpful.
