Today Christology is of concern to both New Testament scholars and theologians alike and continues to provoke debate within the Church. Christology: A Guide for the Perplexed examines the key debates and defining moments in the early Church and the Reformation. After a brief introduction providing a basic definition of Christology, this historical background provides an essential foundation on which to outline later developments in Christology. Alan Spence then considers the Quest for the Historical Jesus, the work of the major theologians in this area including Barth and Schleiermacher, and from the present day, N.T. Wright and Pannenberg, and explores the contemporary arguments within the field of Christology.

INTRODUCTION CLASSICAL CHRISTOLOGY THE PARADOX INCARNATION ATHANASIUS AND THE ARIANS THE HUMAN MIND OF THE WORD OF GOD DIVINE AND HUMAN WILLING IN CHRIST JESUS AND THE SPIRIT MODERN CHRISTOLOGY THE SOCINIAN CHALLENGE TO NICEA IN SEARCH OF THE HISTORICAL JESUS A THEOLOGY OF RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE THE CHRIST OF FAITH AND THE JESUS OF HISTORY THE DOCTRINE OF THE WORD OF GOD RESURRECTION AS REVELATION CONCLUSION AN ECUMENICAL CHRISTOLOGY

'This admirably lucid book fills an extremely important gap in the theological market, offering a historical and conceptual introduction to classical and modern Christology. While allowing it to speak for itself, Spence weaves the material into a sensitive meta-narrative, thus offering a coherent and digestible account of the development of Christology. In doing so he brings conceptual clarity to the conundrums encountered along the way, and above all highlights what exactly was at stake at each stage.'
