Short Studies in Systematic Theology The Person of Christ

In this addition to the Short Studies in Systematic Theology, Stephen J. Wellum examines the divinity and humanity of Christ, focusing on who Jesus is from Scripture and historical theology, showing readers why Jesus is unique and how they should think about the incarnation. “From beginning to end, Scripture unveils from shadow to reality that Jesus is God the Son incarnate.” Some people think of Jesus as a great prophet or a wise philosopher; others see him as an important religious leader or even a revolutionary. In this addition to the Short Studies in Systematic Theology series, Stephen Wellum challenges these claims as he argues for the divinity of Jesus according to Scripture and in line with creedal Christianity. In this brief introduction, we are invited to rejoice in the centrality of Christ—who as both God and man reconciles us to God. Part of the Short Studies in Systematic Theology series Written by Stephen Wellum, author of God the Son Incarnate Explores how historic Christianity has understood the divinity and humanity of Jesus Christ
