You Tube Theology

One of this generation's foremost Old Testament scholars, Dr. Daniel Carroll Rodas, led this Bible study for Anglican leaders, from three different countries in four different time zones, on behalf of the Matthew 25 Initiative. This study aims to provide participants with a deep understanding of a biblical vision for justice and mercy. The question of biblical ethics is unpacked with a specific emphasis on “how are the people of God to engage society? how does theology interact with social structures from a biblical perspective?"

Dr. Carroll surveys the prophetic critiques found in Micah, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, and Zechariah.

• The prophets condemn the powerful who are cruel and the religious leaders who are corrupt.
• The religious leaders have false views of God and worship, which lead to a thoroughly corrupt society.
• All of these prophetic books condemn injustice, but all also announce a different reality: wholistic redemption for the people of God and the world.
