Theology can be divided in a number of ways. Many of these divisions have originatedin the study of Christian Religion. Although some have been adopted to apply to other religions.
There is also:
Angelology—angels, the unseen world
Bibliology-----the Bible
Christology—Jesus Christ (the nature of Christ)
Covenent Theology--------(Old and New Testament)
Demonology—satan
Ecclesiology----the church
Harmatiology—sin

In other words, Theology announces not just what the bible says, but what it means. I studied all of these. Is there anyone here who is into just one of these?

Yes Bibliology. But you forgot systematic theology which I have also studied.
 
In addition to those listed, I study sacramental theology, liturgical theology, soteriology, eschatology. Systematic theology and Christology are essential in Christian theological reflection.

Not quite sure what you’re saying, Righteousone. And like Hesychios, I too would ask: do you pray?

Why would you ask such a ridiculous question like do I pray? I pray morning, noon, and night. I say a constant rosary, Chaplet, and so forth. Why? I am merely asking a simple question if anyone has studied any of these…why make something so simple so difficult?
 
In college I studied two years of dogmatic theology as well as sacramental and moral theology. This was not uncommon in Catholic colleges in the 1960’s.

The source of all Christian theology is scripture. In the Catholic Church, it may also include Catholic Tradition. In the LDS Church, it will also include modern LDS scripture. Know your scriptures, and you will become a Christian theologian—of all branches of it. The degree of your expertise will depend on how well you know it.
