Write a 1,500-2,000 word comparison paper on theological methodology and prolegomena of the two chosen modern theologians who hold significantly different positions. Include the following:

1. Each theologian’s definition of the theological task including the nature and goal of theology as a spiritual, academic, and churchly discipline
2. Each theologian’s description of methodology for theology in accordance with the nature of God and God's revelation
3. Each theologian’s approach to being “biblically faithful” in theology

Use 3-5 academic resources as well as the Bible and the textbook to support your comparison.
