Download or read book Calvin's Christology written by Stephen Edmondson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-07 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stephen Edmondson articulates a coherent Christology from Calvin's commentaries and his Institutes. He argues that, through the medium of Scripture's history, Calvin, the biblical humanist, renders a Christology that seeks to capture both the breadth of God's multifaceted grace enacted in history, and the hearts of God's people formed by history. What emerges is a picture of Christ as the Mediator of God's covenant through his threefold office of priest, king and prophet. This is the first significant volume to explore Calvin's Christology in several decades.
