During the Winter Semester 2010 at Veritas, we are pleased to offer the following NEW courses!



THE BOOK OF REVELATION (Part Two)

BIBL6381

The second part of a very comprehensive study of the last Book of the Bible. Dr. Tony Garland covers Chapters 12 through 22 of Revelation and demonstrates the superiority of the dispensational premillennial position as over against those views which inconsistently switch from literal to symbolic interpretation of the texts.

Textbooks: Revelation: An Exegetical Commentary - 2 vols. (Robert L. Thomas), Revelation: Four Views: A Parallel Commentary (Steve Gregg, ed.).



THE CANON OF SCRIPTURE

BIBL6222

This course on the Biblical Canon considers the questions of the canonicity of the books of both Testaments. It begins by defining "canon" and stating its importance. There is no doubt, in these days when liberals want to reopen the whole question of canonicity, that we have a firm grasp of the issues and that we respond in a believing way to the many objections to the traditional canon that are around today.

Textbooks: The Canon of Scripture (F.F. Bruce), The Canon Debate (L.M. McDonald & J.A. Sanders, eds.).



1st & 2nd THESSALONIANS


BIBL6374

In this course, Dr. Steve Lewis examines the pastoral and prophetic importance of these early Pauline letters. Attention is given to the relationship between eschatology and sanctification.

Textbooks: 1 & 2 Thessalonians (D. Edmond Hiebert).



SYSTEMATIC THEOLOGY (7): The Doctrine of the Last Things

THEO5307

This course examines both Individual and General Eschatology. Matters of Life After Death, Heaven and Hell are treated before looking at the various approaches to the End Times taught by evangelicals. Although this course is given from a distinctly dispensational premillennial perspective, Dr Henebury is careful to supply extensive interaction from differing views. But at the end of the day, the approach reflects the belief that if the biblical material can be interpreted in a plain-sense way, there is no good reason for it not to be.

Textbooks: Christian Theology (Millard Erickson), Things To Come (J. Dwight Pentecost), Dispensationalism (Charles C. Ryrie), Israel: The Land and the People (H. Wayne House, ed.).



ALL OUR COURSES are available for enrollment! Please contact an instructor if you need guidance.



Note: Undergraduates are encouraged to enroll and participate in the graduate-level courses; the study involved will be well worth the effort! And as always, anyone may audit the classes, whether for trial purposes, or simply for personal edification. While we encourage students to enroll for our semesters, it is possible to do a course at any time if flexibility is an issue.
