Paul D. Molnar

The Centrality of Christ in the Theology of Thomas F. Torrance (eBook, PDF)

Some Dogmatic Implications

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Leading systematic theologian, Paul D. Molnar examines the theology of Thomas F. Torrance in three powerful essays. In a ground-breaking chapter, Molnar discusses whether Chalcedon needs to be repaired in order to recognize and maintain the full and complete humanity of Jesus Christ as the incarnate Word. He also delves into Torrance's view of justification by grace alone and emphasizes its relation to Liberation Theology. Additionally, comparing the approaches of Karl Rahner and T. F. Torrance, this book explores and explains how a number of Rahner's presuppositions and conclusions differ from the positions espoused by Torrance, all in order to illustrate the importance of grace in theologies of both thinkers.
