We all systematize the Bible, that is, we want to know what the Bible says about a particular topic. But let’s say there are two ways to approach the Bible. The first is the position of pride and the second is humility. The first says, “I believe that God should give everyone the same opportunity, because it is right (and I define what is right) and God is right. “and now I’m going to look for a verse in?1a Isn’t it in the Bible?; Or?I believe that God is so sovereign that we do not need to evangelize. Is it in this verse? I forgot what it is. The second position reads: “Divine sovereignty and human responsibility is a difficult subject, so instead of saying how I think things should look, I’m going to look at the Bible to see what it says (analyze terms, without giving meaning I want them, observe context, don’t use text as a pretext, and observe all god’s revelation). These two positions are illustrated below:

It’s just another name for biblical theology
There is something good about going back to the roots: as far as evangelical Christianity is concerned, its roots lie on the floor of the Protestant Reformation of the sixteenth century, just as the reformers protested against the corrupt teaching of the Roman Catholic Church, the Evangelical Church In What is Reformed Theology ?, Dr. RCSproul offers an understandable introduction to reformed theology. In simple terms, reformed theology is the theology of reformed Protestants and the heart of the historical Protestant faith. As CHSpurgeon once said, reformed theology is nothing more than biblical Christianity.
