“Do not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.” Most assume this is about swearing. Carmen Joy Imes argues the commandment means something much larger — and more demanding:

Biblical theology is now required in most evangelical seminaries.

But there's still no consensus definition of what it actually is.

At minimum, most practitioners agree on this: biblical theology is the discipline of reading Scripture on its own terms, following the progressive unfolding of God's redemptive purposes across the canon from creation to new creation.

What it's not:
• It's not systematic theology organized biblically (that's still systematics)
• It's not a survey of what each biblical author believed (that's history of religion)
• It's not a replacement for exegesis (it presupposes it)

What it uniquely does:
• Trains students to see how earlier texts are taken up and developed in later ones
• Reveals the typological connections that make sense of how the NT reads the OT
• Gives preachers a coherent framework for preaching any text in its canonical context

The ambiguity in the definition isn't a problem to be solved. It's a sign that the discipline is still working out its own methods.

For faculty: that ambiguity is actually pedagogically productive. It forces students to grapple with hermeneutical questions they'd otherwise skip.

Does God choose who will be saved? The doctrine of election is one of the most debated in Christian theology. Four positions:

1/ Unconditional Election (Calvinist) — God chooses apart from any foreseen faith or merit. Grace is entirely his initiative.

2/ Conditional Election (Arminian) — God elects based on foreknown faith. Human response is genuinely determinative.

3/ Corporate Election — God elects the body (the church), not individuals. You participate by being in Christ.

4/ Molinism — God elects based on middle knowledge: what each person would freely do in any possible world.

All four are trying to hold together divine sovereignty and human responsibility. None does it without remainder.
