Date: November 11-15, 2012
Location: Southern New England Conference Office (South Lancaster, MA) (A
Course Description:
The Academic Objectives:
-
To encourage and provide opportunity to seminary students to think for themselves and to reason for themselves prayerfully about the subject of the Holy Spirit, and not to be mere reflectors of the thoughts of others on this topic; and to increase graduate student interest in this crucially important topic.
-
To provide helpful factual knowledge about selected aspects of the person and work of the Holy Spirit in the plan of redemption and the divine economy as viewed from biblical, theological, and philosophical perspectives. This information will help the seminary student to understand and evaluate fundamental theories with respect to the doctrine of the Holy Spirit.
-
To integrate the doctrine of the Holy Spirit into the whole of Christian life and into other Christian concepts.
The Practical Objectives:
-
To relate the course material to real-life situations. This objective means that we will apply the course material to the daily work of the minister in the local church setting.
-
To assist the seminary student in forging practical tools and materials which can be immediately used and applied in a local church setting for the enrichment and up-building of the members, and for winning new individuals to Jesus Christ.
The Spiritual Objectives:
-
The spiritual objective of this class is that by the grace of God we might become ministers and teachers filled with the Holy Spirit. May God richly bless you and the instructor as we explore this inexhaustible subject together!
