​BT605: Introduction to Biblical Theology
Monday 7.30-9.30pm (Online)
​
Introduction to Biblical Theology gives the big picture of how the whole Bible, in all its diverse parts and genres, fits together as a unified whole. We look at how Christ—his life, death, and resurrection— is the centre of God's eternal plan. Understanding the big picture helps us know how to receive God’s word in the Old Testament as Christian believers, and it allows us to locate ourselves in the story of what God is doing from beginning to end.

OT151: Hebrew Language 1
Wednesday 7pm (Online)
​
In OT151, you will study the morphology, vocabulary and syntax of the Biblical Hebrew Language. The goal is to enable you to understand Biblical Hebrew as fast as possible. As a result, a focus is placed on recognition and translation rather than linguistics and composition. As a distinctive of the course, the lessons will make use of progressive and comprehensible input in order to bring you to the point where you can comfortably begin reading and understanding the book of Ruth. To this end, the lessons will emphasize reading, repetition, memorization and oral review.

ST302: Theology of Revelation and God
Thursday 7pm (Auckland & Online)​
Who is God and how can we really know him? In this class we look to answer the question of how a person can know God with any certainty (revelation). This will include a study of the Bible as inspired revelation. The course then moves on to consider who God really is. Is it possible to know anything meaningful about an infinite and eternal spiritual Being? This study also takes in the doctrine of the Trinity as confessed by the church.
