Providing a broad overview of the story that Christianity tells us about our human situation before God, this book will also seek to provide encouragement and a solid foundation for the reader's further explorations within the subject. With debates surrounding the relation between faith and reason in theology, the book opens with a consideration of the basis of theology and goes on to explore key topics including: - the identity of Jesus and debates in Christology; - the role of the Bible in shaping theological inquiry; - the centrality of the Trinity for all forms of Christian thinking; - the promise of salvation and how it is achieved. With suggestions for further reading at the end of each chapter, along with a glossary, Christian Theology: The Basics is the ideal starting point for those new to the study of theology. Murray Rae is Professor of Theology at the University of Otago, New Zealand. -- Contents: Preface; 1 Speaking of God [Theology as Witness; Theological Language; Witness of Scripture; Tradition; Reason; Experience; Further Reading]; 2 Creation and Covenant [What Kind of Literature Do We Find in Genesis?; Order of Creation; Creation Out of Nothing; 'Telos' of Creation; Triune Creator; Dominion; Divine Purpose; Humanity Made in God's Image; Covenant; Creation and Fall; Relational Being; True Humanity; Further Reading]; 3 Jesus and the Spirit [Who Is Jesus?
