The Soteriological Use of Call by Paul and Luke (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The congruence of the theology of Paul and Luke is a matter of debate. In particular, according to many scholars, the soteriologies of Paul and Luke are divergent. This volume argues that the usage of ¿ä¿¿ language by both Paul and Luke suggests that it may be a common element in their soteriologies. The author demonstrates that ¿ä¿¿ language is an important concept in the soteriologies of Luke and Paul and that although there are contrasts, there are a number of points of comparison. Crucial to this common understanding is the association of ¿ä¿¿ language with the OT covenants, election, covenant meals, and an expectation of the eschatological banquet. As a result of this prominent and consistent usage by Paul and Luke, the language of ¿ä¿¿ deserves a higher place in the Christian understanding of salvation. This has implications for Christian life and practice.
