This unit introduces students to the critical examination of the beliefs central to the Christian faith. It explores the affirmation of Jesus as the Christ; the significance of his life, death, and resurrection; and the implications of faith in Jesus Christ for belief in God and understandings of creation, human personhood, sin, salvation, the church, and the eschaton. Students will consider these beliefs from varying theological perspectives, with a view to the development of doctrine, and in light of historical and cultural issues.
