Reading Acts Series on the New Perspective on Paul

I’ve written a bit about this before, but it’s hardly my main area of expertise.

Philip J. Long has written a very nice introductory series on the New Perspective on Paul. Here are the links:

Basics of the New Perspective –

• An Introduction
• What Was the Old Perspective?
• Judaism as a Religion of Grace
• Was Paul “Converted” to Christianity
• Works of Righteousness
• Justification
• Responses to the NPP
• Dispensationalism and the NPP

I link to this in detail because I think it is one of the best short introductions I’ve read, and it’s available right her in blog form. I am frequently asked for a short version of just what is the New Perspective on Paul. Now I have something easily available that I can recommend.
