BTH 4430 - Pneumatology

Institution:

Crossroads College (Closed)

Subject:

Description:

The primary of objective of this course is to construct a coherent theology of the Holy Spirit based both on biblical accounts and on the Church's attempts to make sense of its experience of the Spirit throughout its history. Accordingly, students devote the first part of the course to examining key scriptural passages and key moments in the Church's history that provide insights into the Spirit. They then bring these insights to bear on contemporary theological and pastoral issues as they relate to the Holy Spirit, all with the goal of providing a systematic description of the Spirit's activity. Special attention is given as to why a "theology" of the Holy Spirit is so difficult to achieve, and why Protestant theologians (including those belonging to the Restoration Movement) have neglected this important doctrine.
