The Grand Story of the Gospel

Paper details

Reflecting on your readings in McKnight and Bates, how might you frame the big picture of the biblical narrative? What are the central elements in the story, and how is the gospel related to each of these (e.g. salvation, new creation, etc.)? How does framing the gospel in terms of this big narrative do justice to the unity of the Scriptures? Bates, Matthew W. Salvation by Allegiance Alone. 1st ed. Grand Rapids: Baker, 2017.
