ST 313 Course at a Glance
Doctrine of Salvation
Lecturing Faculty: Sinclair Ferguson
Effective for the 2023-2024 Academic Year
Course Description
In this course we have the privilege of exploring the loci of theology that relate to soteriology, or the application of Christ’s completed "once for all" work of salvation to the church and the individual believer. We will seek to understand the manifold benefits of Christ and how the Holy Spirit generously bestows them upon his people. We will explore the inner coherence, harmony, and logic of God’s redemptive work of conforming his people "to the likeness of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers" (Rom. 8:29).
