Time, Participation in Christ, and Theosis in Paul

We will think about how we think about time, particularly in regard to Paul: did Paul think of time as moving forward consecutively under God’s planned direction, or that through Christ time has been interrupted by God, establishing an already/not yet temporality?

We will think about how Paul might have understood life in Christ – do we share Christ’s experiences of faith, death and resurrection?

We will think about whether Paul thought that the goal of the Christian life is becoming like God/Christ.

Course will be taught in person at VST, and via Zoom for distance students (degree students must connect synchronously if studying via Zoom)
