Dan Beeby on interfaith relations in the Bible
In his excellent little book, Canon and Mission (Harrisburg: Trinity Press International, 1999), Dan Beeby has a section he calls, ‘The People and the Nations: Interfaith Relations in the Bible’ (pp.80ff.). Here are the headings that structure his discussion, which begins with the Old Testament and then applies a similar framework to the New Testament, while also adding a further dimension as well. Israel Existed (Exists?) for the Nations Israel’s Life was Lived Over Against the Nations 1. The nations as enemies. 2. The nations as God’s instruments of punishment. 3.

Biblical Basis of Mission course – week six
Would you read the Bible differently if you were being persecuted for your faith? If so, how? What questions and concerns would you bring to the text?
