A Perspective ShiftOn the day my oldest child died, I received a message from a friend that simply read, “How long, O Lord? How long?” This message encapsulates so much of the Christian life. We suffer in the fallen world. We wait for the return of Christ. We aim to move fruitfully toward glory. In the Christian life, all things begin, point to, and end in eternity. For most of my life, I did not live with this awareness, but that changed radically one Veterans Day.

As we look at how the ending of the Bible story contains pictures that we can gather along the way, we begin to again see an important foundation for biblical theology: the Bible story ends in a way that relates to all of what has come before. There are echoes of Genesis in Revelation, as well as pictures and events that remind us of every part of the story of God’s saving work in the lives of his people in the world.

The Conquering Lamb and KingRevelation 19 contains a very vivid picture of both the marriage supper of the Lamb and the “feast” of those who are judged by Christ. As we can see in many passages of Revelation, Jesus Christ is the Savior and the Lamb, but he is also the conquering King and the eternal Judge. His coming will mean salvation for some and horrible judgment for those who have not accepted his rule over their lives and hearts.

Biblical theology involves understanding the storyline of the Bible, but it is more than just a march through the pages of Scripture sequentially. It takes work and discipline and intentionality in every step along this march through the biblical narrative to see how the parts of the story are connecting, how continuity of God’s work and promises is maintained, and how God is progressively revealing his glorious saving plan and redemptive purposes to his people in the world he has made.

A Foundation for Biblical TheologyThe core conviction of those who practice the discipline of biblical theology is that the Bible is a unified work—a book inspired by one divine author (God) and given to human beings to help them understand his broad saving plan, which ultimately was accomplished through the death and resurrection of his Son, Jesus Christ. We will see shortly how Jesus himself pointed us toward this way of understanding Scripture.

Divinely Inspired WordsThe Bible doesn’t come to us as an academic textbook, with carefully delineated topical headings organized according to theological themes. Certainly, God could have chosen to reveal himself differently. He could have given us a long lists of rules. He could have given us something like an encyclopedia of theological doctrines. But, as we know, that is not how God has chosen to reveal himself to us in his inspired word.

Este es un extracto y traducción del libro Knowing God’s Truth, que ganó el Premio al Mérito en la categoría de Jóvenes Adultos de los Premios del Libro 2024 de CT. Probablemente la mayor crítica a la disciplina de la teología, incluso por parte de los cristianos, es que no es práctica. No es de extrañar que las personas que no conocen a Jesús no quieran estudiar teología.
