New Testament Narratives (Day Course)
NT510 New Testament Narratives (3 credits)
Thursdays, 9.00 am – 12.30 pm

Integrity will be Tested and Rewarded
3 The integrity of the upright guides them,
but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity. ~ Proverbs 11:3 (NIV)
“If you want to influence others, the most important thing you can do is be a living example of the principles, ideals, and faith that you advocate.” ~ Nick Vujicic
In Old Testament Hebrew, “integrity” means in a state of completeness, perfection, soundness, uprightness, and wholeness without blemish. Similarly, in New Testament Greek, it means honesty and having a habit of good works.
“Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you. Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways. Do not turn to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil.” ~ Proverbs 4:25-27 (NIV)
“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” ~ Philippians 4:8 (NIV)
