Final Course, NT 511 The Christian and New Testament Theology
| Quantity |
Just as the Old Testament gives purpose to New, so the New Testament sheds light on the Old. In this course, learners study the discipline and task of New Testament Theology by confronting the issues of biblical theology within Old and New Testament contexts. The lectures discuss the overarching issues of New Testament theology itself: the origin and nature of sin and the Fall, God's sovereignty and human freedom, the law/Gospel contrast, the need for and contours of the New Covenant, and the significance of Christ within the history of Israel. The course is designed to assist the student in formulating a biblical theology of the New Testament that is essential for the life of the Church.
