This course focuses on the development of the first-century Church as the fulfillment of Jesus Christ’s promise to build His Church. The growth of the Church is examined from the Day of Pentecost to the end of Paul’s first Roman imprisonment, both from the perspective of the earliest Christians and as the Church interacted with the secular authorities of the Roman world. The first-century Church is also examined as a model for the Church throughout the ages.
