Course Description:
The Old Testament is often viewed as antiquated, mysterious, and even irrelevant. In this course, Dr. Waltke shows how Old Testament theology is pivotal to the universal goal of redemptive history: the rule of God and the establishment of God's kingdom in all the earth. The course tracks salvation history as it appears in nearly every book of the Old Testament, and shows the vital relationship of the Old Testament to the New. Throughout the course, Dr. Waltke applies the doctrines of kingdom and salvation to the Christian life.
Upon completion of this course, the student should be able to:
- Recognize the theology of the Old Testament as it relates to the theme of salvation.
- Discuss the books of the Old Testament in light of their contribution to salvation history.
- Gain awareness of the history surrounding the development of the Old Testament.
- Correlate the salvation history of the Old Testament with the New Testament doctrines of kingdom and salvation.
- Apply the principles from the Law, Prophets, and Writings to life and ministry.
