TESTS AND ASSIGNMENTS:
Tests:
There will be three tests administered - one for each book covered in class. The first two tests will be handed out on the day the lecture for that book is complete and will be due two weeks from that date. The test for Titus will be handed out two weeks prior to the end of the semester and will be due the last day of class.
Assignments:
Written Assignment: Explain how First Timothy 3:14-16 relates to the books of First and Second Timothy and Titus as to how Paul taught Timothy and Titus to conduct themselves in the house of God. Also, include how these books relate to men's and women's roles in the church. It must be a minimum of 8 pages, but points will be assessed to the depth of research and thought put into the paper. Make sure to back up everything with Scripture, as points will be docked if something is merely asserted with no scriptural proof.
Reading Assignment: Read each epistle three times. No points will be given for this assignment, but a failure to read the epistles will result in failure of the class. This will be judged on the integrity of each individual student.
