INCARNATION HB

Thomas F. Torrances' richest and fullest exposition of the theology of the Incarnation. A landmark publication! Thomas F. Torrance's new book on Christology combines heart and head in a deeply biblical, unified, Christ-centred and Trinitarian theology. It presents a full account of the meaning and significance of the life and person of Jesus Christ, arguing that his work of revelation and reconciliation can only be understood in the light of who he is (real God and real man united in one person). Torrance argues that the whole life of the Jesus Christ from his birth, through his ministry, cross, resurrection, and ascension to his second coming is of saving significance. 'No other book I know in English does what this superb volume does in presenting with absolute clarity the full classical doctrine of the universal Church on the person and work of Christ. This book is a wonderful legacy from one of the very greatest of English-language systematic theologians.' Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury 'No theologian in the latter half of the 20th century devoted more attention to the mystery of the Incarnation than T.F. Torrance.?These magnificent posthumously published lectures give us the most sustained and rounded account of his views that we will ever have.?In depth of learning, profundity of insight and purity of faith, nothing comparable has appeared from the pen of an English-speaking theologian since John Henry Newman.' George Hunsinger, Hazel Thompson McCord Professor of Systematic Theology, Princeton Theological Seminary, USA T.F. Torrance stands as one of the finest English-speaking theologians of modern times. Here we have the nearest thing to the systematic theology he had always hoped to write. Scripturally rooted, philosophically acute, and always alert to the theological issues that really matter, this book cannot fail to inspire anyone who cares about constructive Christian thought in our day.' Jeremy Begbie, Thomas Langford Research Professor of Theology, Duke University
