About this title

Synopsis

Enjoy this study with us in full color! An introductory study of 16 life-guiding, biblical teachings. This course combines the strengths of systematic, biblical and narrative theologies. For example, systematic theology focuses on topics or doctrines, such as the baptism in the Holy Spirit (Doctrines 7 & 8). But when we study the Spirit-baptism in Acts through the eyes of Luke, we are practicing biblical theology—which pays special attention to the main concerns of a particular writer. Also, when we study in Romans about sanctification (Doctrine 9), we are practicing biblical theology, focusing on Paul’s frequent and thorough teachings about righteous and holy living. Likewise, when we study eschatological teachings (Doctrines 13–16), we use the helpful methodology of comparing the unique perspectives of Matthew, Paul, Peter and John. Although each of these four writers has a different group of readers, they all practice narrative theology, which focuses on the big story of the Bible. Throughout this course we enable students to understand the 16 biblical doctrines. In addition to this knowledge, this course connects the what with the so what and the now what. So we also urge students to examine, discuss, embrace, cherish, believe, experience and live in harmony with these teachings. These 16 biblical doctrines invite us to a life of fellowship on earth with God, and a membership forever in His heavenly family. As we receive these biblical truths He has given us, we share His values—which must affect both our beliefs and our behavior.
