Biblical Theology

Biblical Theology

Overview

Dr. Jeon's Biblical Theology is a timely must-read for church leaders, seminarians, pastors, and missionaries in the Global Mission Field. It examines God's redemptive history in creation, fall, redemption, and consummation as revealed in the Old and New Testaments. Dr. Jeon delves into the grand redemptive drama, progressively demonstrated through the divine covenants, as well as the manifestation of the eschatological Kingdom of God. This book provides not only a proper redemptive historical vision of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation but also key ideas for the formation of a solid biblical worldview. Dr. Jeon demonstrates the intersection and union between biblical and systematic theology while exploring redemptive history.
Dr. Jeon also emphasizes that we currently live in the eschatological age, inaugurated after Jesus Christ's death and resurrection as the Mediator of the New Covenant. This inaugurated eschatological Kingdom of God will be consummated after the Second Coming of Jesus. Meanwhile, the present age is occurring during the last days, in which we live in the era of Global Missions by God's grace. The community of the New Covenant church should humbly respond by participating in evangelism and missions, demonstrating to the world that God's final judgment is coming.

What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

"Dr. Jeon both surveys the Bible's contents from one epoch to another and sketches out for the reader some of the main issues discussed over the years by Reformed scholars in our deliberations on the Bible's unified message, adding his own analysis. . . . Jeon expertly guides the reader through the main lines of interpretation of the whole of God's revelation from beginning to end. The scope of this work might seem breathtaking at first, but the reader will hopefully be aided by the focus upon covenant and kingdom presented here, which provide the Bible's own organizing center."

—Steve Baugh, from the foreword
