201 Reading and Telling the Story)
The goals for this course are for students to refresh and extend their knowledge of Koine Greek, to become more skilled using Accordance Bible software, to become more adept at employing exegetical methods, and, ultimately, to apply all those aspects for the purpose of more faithful proclamation of the gospel. The focus of the course will be on the exegesis of specific New Testament texts as the occasion for thinking about the Greek, English translations, and biblical resources, especially in conjunction with Accordance. Application of exegetical methods will lead to the development of ministry resources that consider both the original and modern contexts. [Prerequisites: BIB 100 = BBL 201 Greek; BIB 210 = BNT 221 Story of Jesus or BIB 212 = BNT 222 Early Church]. Fulfills Bible at Crossroads requirement for MDiv or Free elective.
A study of African and Hamitic people in the development of the Old and New Testament religion and people, as demonstrated in the Bible. Free elective, also applies toward Black Church Concentration/specialization. [No prerequisites].
"If any harm follows, then you shall give life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burn for burn, wound for wound, stripe for stripe " (Exodus 21:23-24). "Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Those who believe in him are not condemned; but those who do not believe are condemned already, because they have not believed in the name of the only Son of God" (John 3:14-15). Scripture abounds with images of judgment and justice, images that have inspired human imagination and sparked human thinking for centuries. In this course we will engage deeply with selected scriptural depictions of judgment and justice and discuss how they support or problematize current theologies of atonement and systems of criminal and civil justice.
