New Testament Theology

G. B. Caird

Open publisher page 26 citations

Abstract

This book explores New Testament theology based on the conference table approach. This approach allows New Testament writers to speak for themselves, engage in imaginary conversation, with the experiment in dialogue leading ultimately to the theology of Jesus. It examines the plan and the need of salvation as expressed by the writers of the New Testament, and the three-tiered structure of the New Testament language about salvation. It discusses the place of Jesus in the theology of the New Testament, arguing that the teaching of Jesus, as recorded in the four Gospels, shows the starting point and the goal of New Testament theology.
