In the study of Theology, Church History is of great help. Indeed, its value can hardly be expressed.
It is easy for us to think that we have come up with some great new idea, or unparalleled theological insight. However, it is in History that we get to see (from the safety of the sidelines) theological ideas put to trial. Most theological ideas aren't really new. They have been put to trial at some put in history. So, how did that idea stand the rigors of examination?
Paul Maty failed to learn that lesson...to his peril (see here).
