Module 3 - Anthropology: The Doctrine of Man

The scope of this third module is to explore what the Bible teaches about man. And what we learn from Scripture about God leads us to a right understanding of man. Men are tireless in their pursuit of understanding themselves. Their origin, their makeup, their identity, their purpose, and destiny, and so on. But true knowledge of man is not found within himself. It is discovered in what God reveals in Scripture. So if you wish to gain a deeper understanding of man, these lectures aim to benefit you. The lectures in this third module, on the Doctrine of Man, are introductory, not exhaustive, and they are intended to furnish you with a foundation that you can build upon in your further studies.

The theme of this last lecture ties together what we learned about the fall, about man’s sinful nature, and about the continuity of Old and New Testaments. The series of lectures in this third module, or course, on Systematic Theology is devoted to the study of the Doctrine of Man. In the last two lectures, we considered the Doctrine of the Covenant of Works, and the Covenant of Grace. And while the Covenant of Grace could also be included in the fifth module, under Doctrines of Salvation, it adds clarity to learn about those two covenants side by side.
