The battle for the truth of the gospel - with Thomas Schreiner

One of the world’s leading New Testament Scholars Thomas Schriener is in Sydney for the Moore College Lectures on ‘The Battle for the truth of the gospel.’

At the center of his attention is NT Wright and the New Perspective on Paul, a debate that questions whether ancient Judaism was legalistic.

Schreiner tells of his roots in Roman Catholicism, a transformative evangelical faith, and the enduring importance of the Reformation perspective of justification by faith alone.

Schreiner, who chairs the Christian Standard Bible translation committee, takes us behind the scenes of the Christian Standard Bible's translation process, revealing the rigorous debates and decisions that shape how we read that translation. 

He outlines how denominational diversity influences translation accuracy. 

Plus we unpack the profound need to teach biblical gender roles in contemporary culture.

Thomas Schreiner is professor of New Testament at Southern Baptist Theological College in Louisville, Kentucky.
