 | Because a special science is bound to its own field in that way, it will not allow another department of knowledge working in quite a different field to dictate to it on its own ground, either in prescribing its methods or in predetermining its results. |
| In the set of theological disciplines, dogmatics is "the pure science" in which we are concerned to penetrate down to the basic realities about which we must give an account and which we are compelled to think out in accordance with their own nature and the basic principles we derive from them. |
| If dogmatics is the positive science in which we bring to view the basic forms of theological thinking in accordance with which we are compelled to think, if we are to be faithful to the concrete act of God in Jesus Christ, then dogmatics properly pursued cannot but lead to agreement. |
