The Agency of God's Word in Salvation | Aaron H.Y. Chan | Theo Global

Aaron Chan examines Paul's use of Deuteronomy 30:11–14 in Romans 10, tracing the deep narrative and theological roots in Deuteronomy’s own theology of divine communication. By engaging with the literary and canonical context, Aaron Chan demonstrates how Paul’s reading aligns with Deuteronomy's vision of heart transformation and divine agency, identifying the Gospel as the living, active voice of God that fulfills the Torah’s eschatological promise. This presentation is from Theo Global in Southeast Asia. REV. DR. AARON H.Y.
