Eschatology in Galatians Rethinking Paul's Response to Crisis in Galatia

Focusing on Paul's own statement about the Galatian crisis, Yon Kwon demonstrates that the letter is Paul's pastoral engagement with the backsliding Galatians rather than his theological altercation with his opponents. Paul deals with the crisis in Galatia by reminding the Galatians of the implications of their present deviation for their future - the 'not yet' -, instead of affirming the blessings already realized in Christ - the 'already.' Contents include: Introduction, The Context of Paul's Argument, Justification as an end-time gift, Son, seed and heir: Paul's sonship language, Paul's view of promise, Inheritance as a future blessing, Paul's Christological argument, Paul's future eschatology and the Galatian crisis, Conclusion.Kwon, Yon-Gyong is the author of 'Eschatology in Galatians Rethinking Paul's Response to Crisis in Galatia', published 2004 under ISBN 9783161484384 and ISBN 316148438X.
