Throwback Tuesday – New Testament Narratives Class 2017
The class looked at the four Gospels and asked the question: “There’s only one life of Jesus Christ, so why are there four Gospel accounts?” The synoptic Gospels give us a composite portrait of the character, life, and teachings of our Lord and Saviour. Continuing with the book of Acts, the class reviewed the ministry and work of the Holy Spirit in the building up of the Church.
Teachers Ms Amy Lau and Mr Victor Kwok led the students on the path of discovery of why the Gospels are indeed Good News for all generations and the Acts of the Apostles reveal the outpouring and empowerment of the Holy Spirit to the Church for all time.
