Annotation -
Students will be introduced to the fundamentals of the Christian faith in a broad, particularly religious, context. They will be introduced to the philosophical and theological issues surrounding the existence of God. Attention will be given to the biblical faith in relation to other religious and philosophical ideas about God. This is followed by an introduction to the major biblical themes of the Old Testament: creation, sin and salvation. These themes provide the basis for a discussion of Jesus of Nazareth, both from a historical perspective and from the perspective of the New Testament faith. It is the person, teachings and life story of Jesus that are key to understanding Christianity in history and in the present.
