Description
Summary:How do we approach the letters of Paul? Should we approach them historically, as Räisänen proposed, or should we approach them theologically? What method is appropriate for the study of Paul's letters and/or his theology? Reading through this book the method adopted by these four scholars to write their piece on Paul is not the same. The first contributor approaches Paul theologically, thus bringing out some theological issues from Paul's letters - issues like the centrality of Christ in Paul's theology; Paul's view of salvation, sin and judgment; God's saving work in Christ and Paul's vision for the church. These theological issues are discussed extensively by Schreiner from a Reformed Baptist perspective.
