Christology is the area of Christian belief concerning the person and work of Jesus Christ. Our Christology matters because what we believe about Jesus forms the foundation for our Soteriology which is what we believe about how a person can receive forgiveness and new spiritual life.

Theology Proper seeks to focus on what the Bible teaches about God the Father, His existence, Persons of the Trinity, and His character. If we get the nature and character of God the Father wrong, all our theology begins leaking and corrupts every other area of our theological inquiry.

One question many people have thought about or are currently considering is: “If God is good, then why would he allow bad things to happen?” This is a difficult question to answer, and I know that no one will be able to provide you the perfect answer. But together we can explore how God works amid these situations to bring about His purposes.

What is truth? How can we know anything for sure? Is the Bible the legitimate source of truth? Is it authoritative? Those questions fall under the category of the term bibliology which refers to the study of the nature of the Bible as Revelation.

As Christians, our worship is to be devoted to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. However, in the current world we live in, there are constantly people and products vying for our attention and ultimately our worship. Therefore, it is crucial that we constantly make sure that our worship is focused solely on the Lord.

The Bible speaks of its truthfulness from early in the Old Testament, and Jesus affirmed the truthfulness of scripture at the time of his temptation in the New Testament. As His followers today, we can be confident in the truthfulness of scripture but must remain humble in our ability to interpret the Bible.

General and Special Revelation may not seem like exciting theological topics but are exceedingly important to every single believer. Why? Because if Almighty God has revealed Himself; then He has communicated something about Himself.

We have all felt it. A pull towards disobedience, a desire to live our lives "on our own terms." Though we may know God's plans for our lives, or at least the commands that He gives us, we find it impossible to follow through. Why can’t we escape these sinful impulses? To find the answer, we must start at the very beginning.

Each month we will look at a word or phrase related to Christian theology, define it, give background about the theology behind the word, and what it means for us today. This month’s word is Sanctification and how we as Christians become more like Christ through this process.
