Product description
Few things are more essential to the health of the church than clear
understanding of the Bible's teaching concerning the person of Jesus
Christ. Doctrine informs devotion, and this, in turn, motivates
discipleship. Neglect or misunderstanding of Christology will
inevitably weaken Christian character and conduct.
Furthermore, the
ascendancy of pluralism leads many to the view that there is nothing
unique about Jesus, and the media regularly present distorted portraits
of him. It is essential that the church is able to proclaim the
authentic and incomparable Christ to a needy world.
This
stimulating volume, based on the second Affinity Theological Study
Conference, offers biblical and theological explorations of the majesty
and mystery of God incarnate in Jesus Christ. All the contributors are
fully committed to the belief that the Jesus of the Bible is the Jesus
of history and the Christ of faith.
