Q

What are the distinctive features of each of the four gospels? <b>Luke</b>

A

Purpose: To present an accurate account of the life of Christ and to present Christ as the perfect man and saviorAssurance of truth about Jesus (1:1-4). This is the longest and most literary of the Gospels. Presents Jesus’
ancestry, birth, and early life before moving carefully through his ministry, death and resurrection, Luke is also the
most comprehensive of the Gospels.
• Interest in history
• Emphases: prayer, wealth, women, Spirit
• Written for disciples
• Focus on ministry to general outcasts
• Learned message probably from Paul

Q

What are the distinctive features of each of the four gospels? <b>John</b>

A

Purpose: Eternal life through faith in the Son of God- to prove conclusively that Jesus is the Son of God and that all
who believe in him will have eternal life. Focuses on the mystery of the person of Christ and the incarnation, his
relationship to the Father, and the importance of belief in Christ- together with the relative simplicity of its
construction makes it frequently the first portion of Scripture to be translated into another language.
• Seven I am sayings
• Jew and Gentile appeals
• Lot of teaching; not a lot of details
• Feels very personal

Q

Locate and discuss at least two passages which deal with law and grace.

A

<b>Romans 3.21-24:</b> But now a righteousness from God, apart from the law, has been made know, to which the Law
and the prophets testify. This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through
the redemption that comes by Christ Jesus.
<b>Romans 8.1-2:</b>Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of
life set me free from the law of sin and death.
<b>Galatians 3.10-11:</b> All who rely on observing the law are under a curse, for it is written: Curse is everyone who does not continue to do
everything written in the Book of the Law. Clearly no one is justified before God by the Law, because , the righteous will live by faith.
<b>Galatians 5.4-5:</b> You who are trying to be justified by the law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace. But by faith we
eagerly await through the Spirit the righteousness for which we hope.
