Soteriology is the study of the Lord Jesus Christ’s economy of salvation–His salvific work through His Incarnation, Crucifixion, descent into Hades, Resurrection, Ascension, and glorious Second Coming. As such, this course will focus on these topics in relation to humanity and its participation in this economy. What does the fall in the Garden of Eden imply? What are the implications of this fall for contemporary life? How does this fall affect our paradigm, and how does Christ’s salvific work transform this paradigm? Understanding the context surrounding these questions, and more, will be the central focus of this course.
