COURSE DESCRIPTION:
A study focusing on the letters of 1 & 2 Timothy and Titus based on the English text. Critical
issues with regard to background, context, authorship and literary characteristics are
presented, followed by a stress on the theology and contemporary application of their
teaching.
The Pastoral Epistles are unique among those New Testament writings commonly attributed
to Paul. Though they are addressed to individuals they convey general information about
Church governance that is unique to these Pauline letters. They contain valuable insights both
into the challenges facing the early New Testament Church, and those who were called to
lead and minister in those early churches.
The Pastoral Letters abound with instructions and
exhortations about sound doctrine, wealth and beneficence, leadership and church order.
This course will also probe critical problems pertaining to authorship, historical background
and the contemporary application of the teachings of these epistles.
