Lecture 2: Instructing the Church
We are so used to having a written New Testament that we may miss what it says about how the oral teaching became written word. This is especially relevant since the church had the written word of God already in the form of the Scriptures of the Old Testament. So what is changing now that the New Covenant has arrived and the Holy Spirit is sent? At what point did the church, or the apostles, decide that writing things down would be a good idea? Once we understand these questions, we will gain insight in how we are supposed to read the New Testament.
