Theologie des Neuen Testaments

Více o knize

The significantly larger Volume II, compared to the original plan, was published in two parts. Part II / 1 introduces hermeneutic principles that compile historical exegesis results, forming a basis for the Church's binding teachings across time. This is contextualized as a doctrine of the canon of Holy Scripture, referencing the genesis of the Old and New Testament canons discussed in Volume I / 4. It explores the relationship between literal-historical textual interpretation and spiritual writing. Chapters II-V address key topics in New Testament theology, including God's self-revelation in Ex 34.6f (Chapter II), the unity of theology and Christology (Chapter III), the connection between Christology and Soteriology (Chapter IV), and the significance of pneumatology in the context of God's saving action in Christ (Chapter V). Part II / 2 concludes the work with discussions on The Gospel and its Messengers (Chapter VI), Baptism's role in Christian life (Chapter VII), the Eucharistic meal as the Church's focal point (Chapter VIII), the essence of the Church (Chapter IX), its salvation-historical context (Chapter X), the law's meaning for Christians (Chapter XI), the Church's existence in gospel truth (Chapter XII), its life in prayer (Chapter XIII), creation and the world (Chapter XIV), eschatology in the New Testament (Chapter XV), and the nature of the three-in-one God (Chapter XVI).
