I was almost going to skip reading the last page (page 806!) of Appendix I in John Frame’s [*The Doctrine of God*](http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0875522637/dashhouse-20?ref=dashhouse.com). But then I would have missed this golden paragraph. He’s writing about the dangers of scholasticism, but it applies in many other areas as well.

> Let us not suppose that some new theological system will arrive to banish scholasticism forever! I suspect that no particular theological method will provide a sure escape from the evils which we connect with scholasticism; developed by sinful man those evils are sins of the heart, and they can creep into any method, any kind of system, if the theologian is not on guard. **The remedy for theological barrenness is not necessarily a new method, but always a prayer of repentance.**
