Christians, apart from the Bible, what other Christian writings do you find theological value in?

St. Augustine, from the little I've read of his works, seemed to have been inspired by the Holy Spirit. C.S. Lewis is another. My dad likes Dorothy L. Sayers who was a friend of Lewis'.

I am a Catholic, but know of no others besides Mormon, like Jesus The Christ. I assume that "theological information" is broad, and means information or explanation of our beliefs and worship system. There is no info on God - he's still a mystery, not defined that well IMO. Writings on Popes and Saints is more of a history lesson to me. I would accept any writings about the apostles as having value. Martin Luther is cool too, and things about reformation. Anglicanism then became a standard in England, like John Calvin the author of reformed theology, later Presbyterianism.

The Presbyterian Church USA has adopted the Book of Confessions, which reflects the inclusion of other Reformed confessions in addition to the Westminster documents. These other documents include ancient creedal statements, (the Nicene Creed, the Apostles' Creed), 16th century Reformed confessions (the Scots Confession, the Heidelberg Catechism, the Second Helvetic Confession, all of which were written before Calvinism had developed as a particular strand of Reformed doctrine), and 20th century documents (The Theological Declaration of Barmen and the Confession of 1967).

The Presbyterian Church in Canada developed the confessional document Living Faith [1984] and retains it as a subordinate standard of the denomination. It is confessional in format, yet like the Westminster Confession, draws attention back to the original text of the Bible.

There are so many I don't know where to begin. I appreciate a lot of the the Puritan writers such as John Owen, for instance. I have enjoyed Spurgeon's sermons. I also appreciate a number of books by Arthur Pink. There are always areas where I will disagree with these people, but I find they bring me a lot of encouragement and enlightenment too. My only authority is the Bible, but these others contribute to my appreciation and understanding of the Bible. I appreciate both John MacArthur and Rick Warren, even though the first one thinks the second is a heretic. I could go on and on. I've been blessed by Thomas a Kempis, even Saint Theresa, on prayer - even though I would have many important theological differences from them.

I've read pieces of the Didache, it's interesting.

The Early Church Fathers, The Doctors of the Church, Most of the stuff by the Popes, A lot of the stuff from the bishops and priests, and a few other things.

I read the Didache all the time. I have it in my favorites. I think the Didache is a great teaching of the Apostles. I think all Christians should read it.

IMHO, a true Christian is only going to look to the Bible for all answers. They may use other Bible based publications as a tool to help explain the scriptures, but their main source of teaching should be the Bible.

If you ask them a question, they should be able to back it up with a scripture, and NOT their opinion. It's not about what they say, it's about what the Bible says.

Letters from Pliny the Younger to Emperor Trajan.

Writings by historian Edwin Yamauchi.

Also the writings of Josephus, a first century Jewish historian. Those are found in his Jewish Antiquities.

None.

I find value in about 250,000 ancient writings sitting on my shelves that confirm the validity and accuracy of the Bible.

Christianity and Judaism are the only religions in the world founded entirely on historical events.

Reformed theology.
