The Four Major Themes of the Bible
When we step back and look at the big picture of God’s story as given to us in the Bible, we discover that all the stories, prophecies, poems, and letters give shape to four major themes: creation, the fall, redemption, and consummation. In this Groundwork series, we’ll examine the Scriptures to see how these themes help formulate key doctrines in Christian theology that have become pillars of the Reformed faith tradition. We’ll study how these themes invite us deeper into relationship with our loving God and their impact on how we live out our beliefs each day.
