Описание: Warren Carter addresses how New Testament writings construct their presentation of God using narrative and thematic approaches. Chapters will discuss Matthew's Gospel, Luke-Acts, John's Gospel (and letters), Paul, post-Pauline letters, Hebrews, and Revelation. In addition there will be a chapter on the Catholic Epistles.
The author uses four questions to show how God is presented:
How is God presented in relation to Israel?
How is God presented in relation to Jesus and the Spirit?
How is God presented in relation to believers/disciples/the church?
How is God presented in relation to "the world" (both material creation and humanity)?
The approach is not to impose these questions, grid-like, on the material but to use them to surface the important factors of each writing's emphases.
