Jesus and the God of Classical Theism: Biblical Christology in Light of the Doctrine of God

Publisher Description

:In both biblical studies and systematic theology, modern treatments of the person of Christ have cast doubt on whether a more traditional doctrine of God--in which God is immutable, impassible, eternal, and simple--can fit together with the revelation of God in Christ. This book explains how the Jesus revealed in Scripture comports with a classical Christian understanding of God. The author argues that the Bible's Christology coheres with and even requires the affirmation of traditional divine attributes.
