In 2008, we have been in contact with Kairos to discuss on doing some forums together and making available to the public Kairos library resources. It is also a leadership development initiative to raise a new generation of discerning believers. Do check out the first step we take in that direction below and pass it on to friends who would be keen.
KAIROS THEOLOGICAL FORUM
TITLE: Genesis 1-11 and its Relevance Today
INTRODUCTION
The Bible is, through and through, a historical revelation. It is the account of God’s activity in history. As such, it must have a beginning. The book of Genesis gives us our historical point of reference, from which all subsequent revelation proceeds.
It is striking that the book of Genesis (and the Pentateuch) contains the broad outlines of virtually every major area of theology and ethics that includes the doctrine of God and creation, the nature of man and his vocation and foundations for social-political life.
Genesis also sheds light on contemporary events. This can include the conflict the Middle East to the culture war and conflict of civilizations, family life and human sexuality.
OUTLINES:
Lecture 1&2
An overall structural analysis of Genesis
How the world began (Genesis 1:1-2:17)
The fundamental significance of sex (Genesis 2:18 -25)
