Well worth doing. - [Sandra](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/sandra-13/) - This course is designed with the student in mind. The language, and activities are written for everyday people, and not written in a manner to make us appear to be theologians. The course is written for those of us who are walking in relationship with Lord Jesus the Christ. - [Virginia](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/virginia-13/) - What a great and accessible way to learn more on the soul for anyone working with people who really want to care for them in their inner man. - [Melinda](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/melinda-2/) - I really enjoyed this course and would recommend it to anyone and everyone! - [Virginia](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/virginia-12/) - I loved the format.

Many of us probably think we need to give our friends and family members advice and default to that when they come to us with issues they're struggling with, but providing SoulCare goes deeper and is more about our relationship(s) - [Linda](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/linda-17/) - Great course to take as a teacher. - [Clive](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/clive-3/) - Excellent course. - [Melinda](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/melinda/) - The course was really edifying and well-done! - [Cynthia](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/cynthia-14/) - I really enjoyed this course so much that I would have loved to have seen for example principles being derived from the text.

I am ready - [Caroline](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/caroline-5/) - I will be very honest that when I began watching the first lecture, I thought, "Oh, no. Another boring lecture with a monotone speaker." After about five minutes, I was hooked! Dr. Black has a wonderful way with words and stories, and she is an excellent teacher.

You will be blessed by this instruction. I - [Kalu](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/kalu/) - This course is good for people who are in ministry and for laymen in the church. - [Mark](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/mark-25/) - Pastor Boyd presented consistently 'Dynamic' presentations on what he was teaching in this 'just entering senior years' individual's opinion. Moreover, the way that the materials 'quizzes' were structured, namely 'straight-forward', only required students to engage with the Course as outlined in order to 'pass' it, and/or enhance their learning. - [Adi-Naitey](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/adi-naitey-6/) - A very useful course that will make learners effective readers of the Bible.

Don’t neglect this course, go now and enroll. - [Marcia](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/marcia-27/) - Such great videos just makes the whole Bible come alive. Seeing where David and Goliath fought reminds you of every battle fought around that whole area. Never seeing Israel in person gives me so much added insight. I find these videos so much more inspiring than a plain lecture. - [Christine](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/christine-9/) - I'm starting a Bible study on Psalms and I thought this would help with the study.

The additional PDFs and Project PDF workbook is amazing and would love to see that kind of thing incorporated in other courses.

Great course! - [Silvester](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/silvester-3/) - The course is very good for all Bible levels, doesn't matter whether first time or advanced. Very effective course, appreciate the teacher. - [Linda](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/linda-16/) - Downloading the information to save or print, is easy. Pastor Banks has a delightful way of giving the information. Interesting, in bullet format, shares parts of his life.

To grow spiritually, it takes discipline, discipline in prayer, a life led by the Holy Spirit; a renewal of the mind and heart by the Word of God.

Children would grasp many of these concepts. - [Andrea](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/andrea-5/) - Well worth doing. Gave me much greater insight into the OT. The sections dealing with its impact on societies throughout the ages confirmed my belief in its divine origin & ageless appeal.

I find it remarkable that, in short surveys of books like this, he did not skip issues of authorship, nor interpretative problems, like whether women can teach in the Bible, or whether an apostate loses his salvation, - [Jami](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/jami/) - Very informative & thorough - [Esosa](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/esosa-3/) - Very practical - [Richard](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/richard-16/) - I really do appreciate the thorough searching out of the subject matter, and the resources that ODB provided to enrich the learning process. I hope that you don't mind that I use much of what I learned to help me guide four groups of India Pastors in October and November. My mind was so clouded, - [Emily](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/emily-8/) - I enjoyed learning briefly about other worldviews in this course. - [Cade](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/cade/) - Great course! Love how simple yet effective it was - [Weng Yuen](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/weng-yuen-24/) - As he had done with other New Testament books, Dr Blomberg gives good summaries of the two letters to Corinth. I'm impressed with his exposition of the flow of thought and the outline of 2 Corinthians. This is a particularly difficult book to outline, and I've never been satisfied with others' outlines nor my own. - [Yoraidyl](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/yoraidyl/) - Powerful Study - [Weng Yuen](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/weng-yuen-23/) - This is a "meaty" course, covering Romans, the Magnum Opus of Paul, as well as four Prison Epistles. The excursus on archaeology is tough too, but worth trudging through for enrichment. A course to be recommended highly. - [Melissa](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/melissa-8/) - Straight and to the point course! - [Robin](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/robin-3/) - This has been a wonderful journey between me and my relationship with the Lord. Thank you for providing this course. - [Michelle](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/michelle-11/) - This course has been and will continue to be an encouragement to this 59 year old.

The excursus on Judaism as the foundation of Christianity is the toughest portion, but, in giving important background understanding, it is well worth the effort. A course to be recommended highly. - [Maria](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/maria-6/) - The course helped me a lot to organize my ideas, to recognize and give value to the gifts of the Spirit. I would strongly recommend this course. - [Deanna E](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/deanna-e-2/) - Thank you for teaching on a level that I can understand! Which furthers my knowledge of my Lord and Savior. Giving me a closer walk with Him and the confidence to share the the Gospel of Jesus with others. - [Marcia](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/marcia-12/) - This course actually opened my mind to understand how the whole truth of God in our Bible has been rearranged according to new ideologies! New ways to incorporate non believers or partial believers into the whole grand picture of our Jesus Christ. - [Kevin](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/kevin-18/) - This course provides the framework for every believer who wants to learn the true essence of prayer and what it means to pray. - [Margaret](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/margaret-15/) - This was a very interesting course. It never entered my mind, how the Greek had 3 voices, and we only have 1. I definitely learned something new from this course. Even the way the language is written is unique. Enjoyed the instructor, the way she presented the subject. - [Pam](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/pam-6/) - Great great course that I plan to come back through and review again for reminders in Apologetics! - [Weng Yuen](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/weng-yuen-21/) - As usual, Dr. Blomberg gives very concise, but adequate, summaries and outlines. I also particularly like his chapter on the geographical, social, and political contexts of the New Testament books. It gives us very comprehensive background, succinctly compressed into one talk. A course to be recommended highly. - [Farai](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/farai-19/) - Course was amazing. I learned a lot of amazing things. - [Pam](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/pam-5/) - I am in need of this information specifically at this point in my marriage! It was clear, concise information. I am married to a nonbeliever and quick to see his faults and how he hurts me continually with his words and actions but was less aware of how my body language and actions have impacted - [Pam](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/pam-4/) - Very good biblical information!! - [Weng Yuen](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/weng-yuen-20/) - Dr Blomberg is a good teacher and clear communicator of the New Testament. Besides learning an overall survey of two gospels, and the general trend of Jesus' 3 years of ministry, I have at times gained new perspectives and insights about certain things from him, like how to understand the thrust of the Cana-to-Cana ministry - [Jeff](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/jeff-7/) - The ten-minute lectures were just the right amount of time to keep my attention and break my learning into smaller bits so I understood. - [Deleana](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/deleana/) - Very enjoyable presenter. Enthusiastic and personable. I learned some things I will apply in my classroom as well. - [Margaret](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/margaret-14/) - This was an excellent course, I'm going to have to go back over the material. It's really making me think. The materials were awesome. It was a very valuable course. The instructor was very interesting. - [Stacy](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/stacy-2/) - I really enjoyed this course and felt that it helped me have a better understanding of Proverbs. - [Weng Yuen](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/weng-yuen-19/) - An excellent course in five of the minor prophets. The themes and sections of each book are very well outlined. The excursus on archaeology in the toughest portion, but it can be mastered with repeated reading. It probably is meant to provide impetus and suggestions for further personal research on areas of interest after this - [David](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/david-22/) - Very good class - [Ang](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/ang-2/) - Good structured and refreshing approach to teaching Scriptures - [Weng Yuen](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/weng-yuen-18/) - Dr Stuart has presented an excellent introduction to two major prophets, giving good summaries of the main ideas in each segment of each book, as well as the overarching themes found throughout each book. I must salute him for condensing so much information on the Old Testament canon into a single lecture, which incidentally is - [Rafeal](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/rafeal-6/) - Excellent!!!!! - [Tonya](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/tonya-7/) - Great. I gained useful knowledge to help me get a better understanding when studying the Word. - [Lesa](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/lesa/) - I enjoyed the correlation between the stories of the Old and New Testaments, as well as how geography played a part in the events. - [Wanda](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/wanda/) - Wasn't sure what to expect - but thoroughly enjoyed the content, the delivery of the content and the practical application in my classroom. This is a course that I feel I can actually benefit from, in my everyday task of teaching in a Christian school. - [James](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/james-33/) - Outstanding course. Very understandable material and interesting. All Christians would do well to take this course before beginning their witness to others in service to God. - [Troy](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/troy-2/) - This course provided a good foundation for reflecting our grief and our relationship with God. I enjoyed the books recommended for further reading. - [Leon](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/leon-9/) - The course and speakers were very informative. Received lots of tips and value to this course - [Claudia](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/claudia-7/) - I learned a lot from the readings especially the Ray Stedman's book. It was enlightening. - [Weng Yuen](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/weng-yuen-17/) - I was surprised to see Lamentations and Esther discussed together, but, as Dr Stuart had often done in other courses, he once again gives me a fresh perspective to look at these exilic writings in juxtaposition. I am particularly grateful for his succinct, crisp summaries of the rather involved dialogues between Job and his friends, - [Weng Yuen](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/weng-yuen-16/) - As usual, Dr, Stuart's treatment, though abbreviated, gives very important insights and angles to understand the whole book. A casual reader of the Bible may think that the Chronicles are an unnecessary repetition of the books of Samuel and Kings, but Dr. Stuart ably shows how they are different in historical context, in purpose and - [Weng Yuen](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/weng-yuen-15/) - As usual, Dr. Stuart is concise and clear in delivery. I like the way he masterfully drew broad strokes of the Old Testament such that we can remember, e.g. David's Triumph, David's Transgression, David's Troubles. He gave an interesting interpretation of why David's census-taking was wrong, and drew interesting contrasts of wisdom and folly even - [Rachelle](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/rachelle-2/) - Very informative, helpful and comforting. - [Ang](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/ang/) - Good perspective of evolution of Christianity in USA - [Lee anne](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/lee-anne/) - Very good course. I learned new things, particularly about the role of the Spirit in the Old Testament. - [Rawley](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/rawley/) - This course was very engaging, informative, and impactful. - [Monrad](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/monrad/) - This course taught me some useful things about Greek and why there are variations in translations. Plus it shows how seriously I would need to study to really learn Greek. Though I got all questions right in the quizzes, I may listen to the courses again. - [Nicole](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/nicole-2/) - My initial thoughts about learning Apologetics were a little intimidating because I thought the topic was for theologians. However, the lessons in this course were taught in an understandable way that allowed me to be confident in sharing with others. - [Lee](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/lee-3/) - Very clearly and thoroughly communicated. - [Weng Yuen](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/weng-yuen-14/) - Good, concise, clear introduction to three historical books in the Old Testament. Dr. Stuart's juxtapositioning of Judges and Ruth in one lecture is novel to me and inspires me to find interesting lessons of contrast between them. (I was wondering, that perhaps is why God inspired the writing of these two books to be included - [Farai](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/farai-18/) - It was a course worthy studying and listening. Lifetime change. - [Kadisha](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/kadisha/) - Enjoyed the psychological approach! Made it easier to understand speech writing.

As usual, Dr Stuart's style is clear and concise. I'm pleasantly surprised by his excursus into geography and archaeology, which are instrumental to build our understanding and appreciation of these ancient documents. Definitely to be - [Tonya](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/tonya-6/) - I loved it. I've always struggled to pray in public. This course was very valuable in my understanding of what prayer is and is not. I know it has helped me to be more aware of communicating with God about not only the big matters of life, but also the small ones. - [Weng Yuen](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/weng-yuen-12/) - This is a concise and good introduction to the first three books of the Old Testament. Though succinct, it is in no way shallow. The major contents, and especially the themes or purpose, have been clearly explained. The extra readings on Ray Stedman's "Adventuring through the Bible" are equally good. I like especially the outlines - [Luis](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/luis/) - Lectures and commentaries were very helpful. I have learned a lot. So blessed for the opportunity I had to take this course. Cant wait to start NT Basics. - [Beth](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/beth-6/) - Thank you so much for offering this course!

The contents were very organized and easy to understand. Thank you very much! - [Alfredo](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/alfredo-2/) - The course made me realize how much I missed in growing my relationships with God through prayer. I will pray more and enjoy talking and listening to Him now. - [Seth](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/seth/) - I actually really enjoyed diving into 6 types of servant leadership and I took a lot away from this course. - [Laurie](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/laurie-27/) - This course is very eye opening.

I wasn't sure what to expect, but I - [Maureen](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/maureen-2/) - Very clear explanation in each lesson with assessment questions. A well-planned course. - [Curt](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/curt-4/) - It was a great course that helped me to see the Bible is not just a compilation of 66 books but a complete story of God and His people and His mission for His people - [Everett](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/everett-10/) - This course will benefit Christians at all levels. - [Veronica](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/veronica-11/) - Excellent!!! - [Evan](https://learn.artosacademy.org/reviews/evan-4/) - I enjoyed every minute of this course.

In chapters 56–66, they need God’s full restoration—they’re desperate for future security in a time of great - [In | Covenant Images in Isaiah, Part 1](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot247-04-in-covenant-images-in-isaiah-part-1/) - [In | Holy to the LORD, Part 1](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot247-04-in-holy-to-the-lord-part-1/) - [In | The Armor of God](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot247-03-in-the-armor-of-god/) - [In | Those Who Mourn in Zion, Part 1](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot247-03-in-those-who-mourn-in-zion-part-1/) - [In | The Meaning of Messiah](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot247-03-in-the-meaning-of-messiah/) - [In | A Remnant of Trees, Part 1](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot247-02-in-a-remnant-of-trees-part-1/) - [Behind | Two Dates in History, Part 1](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot247-01-behind-two-dates-in-history-part-1/) - [In | Those Who Have Not Heard Will Understand](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot247-01-in-those-who-have-not-heard-will-understand/) - [In | The Torrent of the LORD](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot247-01-in-the-torrent-of-the-lord/) - [NT512-Final Exam](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt512-final-exam/) - [Check Your Understanding](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/bf112-05-check-your-understanding/) - [Check Your Understanding](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/bf112-03-check-your-understanding/) - [Check Your Understanding](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/bf112-02-check-your-understanding/) - [Check Your Understanding](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/bf112-04-check-your-understanding/) - [Check Your Understanding](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/bf112-06-check-your-understanding/) - [Check Your Understanding](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/bf112-07-check-your-understanding/) - [In | Jonah's Sermon](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-05-in-jonah-s-sermon/) - [In | Steadfast Love of YHWH](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-05-in-steadfast-love-of-yhwh/) - [In | Hurled into the Sea](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-05-in-hurled-into-the-sea/) - [In | "Not Loved" Becomes "Loved"](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-04-in-not-loved-becomes-loved/) - [In | Prophetic Hope in Hosea](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-04-in-prophetic-hope-in-hosea/) - [In | What Did Hosea Hate?](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-04-in-what-did-hosea-hate/) - One good way to get to know someone is by knowing what they love. The opposite can also be true, and sometimes the best introductions focus on what people hate. This is the case with the prophets. They love YHWH, His Law, and His people, but they hate any violation of the covenant. They hate - [In | Swallowed by the Nations](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-04-in-swallowed-by-the-nations/) - [In | Consequences of Wandering from God and His Law](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-04-in-consequences-of-wandering-from-god-and-his-law/) - [In | The Fortunes of Israel, Part 1](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-03-in-the-fortunes-of-israel-part-1/) - [In | Amos and the Pentateuch, Part 1](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-03-in-amos-and-the-pentateuch-part-1/) - [In | Classism in Amos, Part 1](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-03-in-classism-in-amos-part-1/) - [In | Prophetic Genres](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-02-in-prophetic-genres/) - We might think of the prophetic books and “prophecy” as a single biblical genre, but these texts, like the roles of the people who produced them, varied. Just as the prophets assumed different roles in the community, their speeches shifted from one genre to the next depending on what they were trying to say and - [In | The Varied Roles of a Prophet](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-02-in-the-varied-roles-of-a-prophet/) - We might think of the prophets as speaking from the periphery of the community, but their role was to engage people in a variety of ways to get their message heard in the community. They presented an alternative view of the world that contrasted starkly with accepted ideas and behaviors of the times. In order to proclaim - [In | Women in Ministry in Paul’s Letters](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt246-05-in-women-in-ministry-in-paul-s-letters/) - Match each woman with her role in the early church, as described by Paul in his letters. - [In | A Vision for a Future Reality](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-01-in-a-vision-for-a-future-reality/) - While the prophets look back to the Law, they look forward to the coming of the Messiah. They remind God’s people of what God has said. They cast a vision for a future reality he is preparing. - [In | Guardians of the Law](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/ot246-01-in-guardians-of-the-law/) - Following the Wisdom books, the prophets may be something of a shock to your system. The relatively passive guidance of the sages and the calm confidence of enduring truths will be replaced by outrage and sometimes piercing moral proclamations. Abraham Heschel has called the prophets “some of the most disturbing people who have ever lived.” - [NT246](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt246-final-exam/) - [In | Secretaries, Co-writers and Carriers](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt246-04-in-secretaries-co-writers-and-carriers/) - Along with Timothy, Paul mentored many other Christians who were members of his “ministry team.” These team members were in many cases Paul’s support staff, and they were essential to the success of Paul’s letters in their initial distribution, and to our encounter with them today. Match Paul’s assistants and “staff” with their roles in - [Behind | Running the Race](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt242-04-behind-running-the-race/) - Paul’s athletic metaphors in 1 Corinthians reference running and boxing, two events typical of ancient Greek sporting events: Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.

Unfortunately it doesn’t always work that way. Sometimes the Bible gets tangled up in harmful social causes and misused for corrupt agendas. The motives are more obviously self-serving at the expense of social good. - [In Front | Misuse and Abuse of the Bible, Part 2](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt245-05-in-front-misuse-and-abuse-of-the-bible-part-2/) - [In Front | Eved in Translation, Part 1](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt245-04-in-front-eved-in-translation-part-1/) - The differences in the meaning of the biblical language for slavery and our modern understanding of this term have been exacerbated by recent translations of the Bible. - [In | Piecing Together Paul’s Biography](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt245-01-in-piecing-together-paul-s-biography/) - We learn a lot about Paul's life in the book of Acts, but in his letters we're able to hear him tell his own story, albeit in short and disordered fragments. A number of these fragments surface in Philippians. Though there is much more to be learned about Paul in other letters, through this one - [NT242](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt242-final-exam/) - [In | Paul and the Beatitudes, Part 1](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt242-04-in-paul-and-the-beatitudes-part-1/) - Paul uses his own suffering and the suffering of his co-workers to defend their authority. Here’s an example: We put no stumbling block in anyone’s path, so that our ministry will not be discredited. Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships and distresses; in beatings, - [NT244](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt244-final-exam/) - [In | Vice Lists in Colossians and the New Testament](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt244-05-in-vice-lists-in-colossians-and-the-new-testament/) - Put to death, therefore, whatever in you is earthly: fornication, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed (which is idolatry). On account of these the wrath of God is coming on those who are disobedient. These are the ways you also once followed, when you were living that life. But now you must get rid of all such - [In | The Old Testament in Paul’s Letters](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt244-03-in-the-old-testament-in-paul-s-letters/) - [NT243](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt243-final-exam/) - [Behind | Unnatural Acts and Degrading Passions, Part 1](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt243-04-behind-unnatural-acts-and-degrading-passions-part-1/) - Read Romans 1:24-28. - [Behind | Wisdom and Idolatry, Part 1](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt243-04-behind-wisdom-and-idolatry-part-1/) - In the first chapter of Romans, Paul links idolatry with the sins that follow. He was far from the first to make this kind of connection in his tradition. Read the passages below from the Wisdom of Solomon (NRSV), an apocryphal book: For all people who were ignorant of God were foolish by nature; and - [In | Access to Law and Nature](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt243-04-in-access-to-law-and-nature/) - [In | Romans as the “Summary of All Christian Doctrine”?

For each of the following passages, identify what kind of metaphor is used. - [In | An Outline of What it Means to Be a Christian](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt243-01-in-an-outline-of-what-it-means-to-be-a-christian/) - Paul covers a huge amount of ground in this one letter. Think of it as a multifaceted diamond, reflecting various aspects of Christian life. A few of those aspects are: theological, historical, ethical and social. On the next page you’ll be asked to associate each of the following verses with one of those aspects: But if our unrighteousness brings out - [In | Boasting in 1 and 2 Corinthians](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt242-05-in-boasting-in-1-and-2-corinthians/) - In 1 and 2 Corinthians, Paul talks more about boasting than the rest of the New Testament combined. While criticizing this behavior and pointing out that “love does not boast” (1 Corinthians 13:4), Paul personally boasts of a number of things in these letters. He boasts for himself and hopes that the Corinthians might come - [Behind | The End of the Parade](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt242-04-behind-the-end-of-the-parade/) - Being placed at the end of a “procession” or a “victor’s parade” (NLT) might sound like an honorable or favored position, but Paul clearly has something different in mind. Those at the end of the parade are those who are “sentenced” to death. This reference is specific enough for it to be clear that Paul - [In | 1 Corinthians and Deuteronomy](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt242-02-in-1-corinthians-and-deuteronomy/) - In his Corinthians letters, Paul preaches against immorality and even provides lists of behaviors he denounces.

The stories of Rahab and Achan in the Central Campaign punctuate this tension. Why, we might ask, is Rahab (the Canaanite) shown mercy, and Achan (the Hebrew) shown judgment? These two stories get at the issue of insiders and outsiders.

Paul was well educated and cultured. He knew how to connect with people and would draw on a wide variety of sources to do so. - [In | Figures of Speech in Galatians](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt240-05-in-figures-of-speech-in-galatians/) - [In | Principles and Practices, Virtues and Vices](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt240-04-in-principles-and-practices-virtues-and-vices/) - Paul preaches freedom from the law and the flesh, but also transformation. He expects the life of Christ and the Spirit to be evident in churches, and to define the way Christians relate to one another and their world. In one sense, Paul’s message is always the same, but his tone varies from letter to letter. The early - [In Front | Two Approaches to the Law, Part 1](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt240-03-in-front-two-approaches-to-the-law-part-1/) - While Paul is quick to point out the dangers of misusing the Law, he insists that it continues to have value in the lives of believers. Every branch of Christian tradition has continued to affirm the value of the Law in one way or another. While we don’t have time to explore every tradition, we’ll - [In | Participation in Christ, Part 1](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt240-03-in-participation-in-christ-part-1/) - This idea of union with Christ, of being in Christ, is one of Paul’s most fundamental ideas. It occurs over 200 times in his letters. In Galatians 2:19–20, Paul describes death to the Law and a new life that is Christ’s life in him.

Eastern Orthodoxy tends to view the Bible as a product of Christianity, rather than as a sacred text that inspired Christianity.

[Record your answers in the workbook provided at the beginning of this course.] In its historical and cultural context, New Testament discipleship was a peculiarly Christian idea. It required a very different response from believers than ancient Greek religion. Dr. Moyer Hubbard has briefly outlined the distinction.

He also prophesied, and His predictions regarding His own death reinforced his authority as a prophet. They were also prophecies of judgment because His Passion would be the ultimate judgment for the world’s sin. In Mark 13 we find a series - [In | Parable Parallels](https://learn.artosacademy.org/quizzes/nt233-04-in-parable-parallels/) - Sometimes Jesus’ different parables would have more than just literary characteristics in common.

It may be that this is nowhere more apparent than in Matthew 10 where Jesus instructs his disciples about the things they will do (or have done to them).
