Collection: September 2022 Tabletalk

The September 2022 issue of Tabletalk will provide an overview of the doctrine of man. John Calvin said that one of the most vital things that we must understand is the nature of mankind. Indeed, while the Bible features God at its center, it does so with reference also to human beings, teaching us what man is to believe concerning God and what duties God requires of man. A sound grasp of biblical anthropology is needed to know the Lord truly and what He requires of us. Sadly, however, the doctrine of man is not well understood in our day, and the ramifications have been felt not only in the church but in the wider society as well. This issue of Tabletalk will seek to address this problem by giving an overview of the biblical doctrine of man, explaining the importance of understanding man as being made male and female in the image of God while also demonstrating the practical application of this teaching.
