This expanded structure would produce a manuscript of approximately 40,000–60,000 words, written in the style of classical Reformed dogmatics while remaining attentive to biblical theology and the unfolding drama of redemption. Throughout, Scripture would remain the supreme authority, with the voices of the Reformers and later Reformed theologians serving as faithful witnesses rather than independent authorities. The aim would be to show that the sovereignty, holiness, justice, mercy, covenant faithfulness, and redeeming grace of the Triune God form one harmonious reality, reaching their fullest revelation in the person and work of Jesus Christ, to whom Psalm 111 ultimately points within the unity of the biblical canon.
