Christology A Biblical, Historical, and Systematic Study of Jesus Christ

Recent years have seen the publication of a number of sensationalist books on Jesus that are supported neither by the New Testament witness nor by mainstream Christian beliefs. This important new book critically examines the best biblical and historical scholarship before tackling some of the key questions of systematic christology: How could Jesus be fully a man and yet truly divine? How could he be sinless and yet exercise free human will? How can his role as universal savior be reconciled with other religions? Can his maleness be reconciled by the just demands of feminism? Clear, balanced, and accessible, this book offers an invaluable interpretation of these and other controversial issues for students, general readers, and clergy.O'Collins, Gerald is the author of 'Christology A Biblical, Historical, and Systematic Study of Jesus Christ', published 1995 under ISBN 9780198755029 and ISBN 0198755023.
