Course Description

This course explores the doctrines of humanity, Christology, soteriology, and ecclesiology within the systematic theological framework. Building upon foundational theological methods, students will examine the creation and nature of humanity (anthropology), the person and work of Jesus Christ (Christology), the application of redemption (soteriology), and the nature and mission of the church (ecclesiology). Key topics include imago Dei, the fall and original sin, the hypostatic union, theories of atonement, the ordo salutis, justification and sanctification, the nature and marks of the church, and the sacraments/ordinances. Students will engage primary theological texts, interact with diverse theological traditions, and develop sophisticated theological arguments.
