New Testament Studies

Frieling begins by looking at the nature of the Gospels and the accounts of healings contained in them. With close attention to the details of the text, he brings alive the events of Christ's life and shows how the Gospels can be directly related to the events and problems of everyday life. He concludes with a consideration of agape, the divine love in the Gospel of St. John.

Rudolf Frieling, together with Friedrich Rittelmeyer and Emil Bock, laid the theological foundations of the Christian Community.
