THE 407: Theology and Controversy in the Letters of Paul- hrs
3.00 Credits
University of Portland
Within twenty five years of Jesus' death, Christianity had spread throughout the Roman Empire. A Jewish convert, Paul of Tarsus (St. Paul), was responsible for founding many of these new churches. Serving as both missionary and theologian, he articulated for the first time many of Christianity's basic beliefs and presided over some of Christianity's earliest theological controversies. In his wake, Paul left behind a series of letters to his churches. In this course we will examine his letters as a way of gaining access to the concerns, the theology, and the growing pains of some of the very first Christians on record.

THE 412: Jesus' Ministry in the Gospels- hrs
3.00 Credits

Christianity, the world's largest religion, began with the ministry of Jesus of Nazareth. Our most important sources of information on Jesus' ministry are the first four writings of the New Testament, the Gospels. This course examines the theology and history contained in the gospels for the purpose of gaining a better understanding of who Jesus was and how his message was received and developed by the early church. Note: This course will focus primarily on Matthew, Mark, and Luke (the "synoptic gospels") or on John in alternating semesters.

THE 415: Ancient Views on Marriage, Divorce, and Sexuality- hrs
3.00 Credits
University of Portland
During the first century of Christianity, the Roman Empire was a complex marketplace of ideas on sexual morality. It is out of this bewildering mixture of Roman, Greek, Jewish, and Christian perspectives that the Church's first statements on marriage, divorce, and sexuality arose-statements that would shape western society for centuries to come. This course explores the roots, the development, and the legacy of early Christian theology on sexual practices and gender relations. It covers such matters as polygamy, serial marriage, prostitution, concubines, sexual immorality, the role and authority of women in religion, virginity, and celibacy.

THE 416: The Second Coming of Christ, in the New Testament and Beyond- hrs
3.00 Credits
University of Portland
Many of Jesus' followers expected him to return within fifty years after his death. At this "second coming" Jesus would banish evil, mete out punishment and reward, and transform God's aging creation into the glorious Kingdom of Heaven. We find these ideas throughout the New Testament- in the Gospels, in the Epistles, and especially in the book of Revelation. This course examines the Jewish roots of Christian "apocalyptic"theology, and discusses the ethical implications of living in an "end time" community,both then and now. Aside from writings in the New Testament, attention will be given to the Old Testament book of Daniel, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and modern apocalyptic movements.
