On the (Possible) Consequences of Affirming That Humility and Obedience Are Proper to the Eternal Son (A Programmatic Description)
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 19 November 2021
Taking its cue from Barth, who suggested that the human humility and obedience of Jesus Christ are grounded in God’s being as God, this introduction outlines the argument of the book as a whole. The book attempts to reestablish the credibility of Chalcedonian logic on the soil of Barth’s theology through developing a “Reformed kenotic Christology.” Through the ontological receptivity of the eternal Son, the humility and obedience of Jesus are made to be his “own” in a sense that makes it clear that the subject of that human attitude and activity is also the eternal Son. The result is a pneumatologically driven two-“natures” Christology. This introduction outlines the explanation of this argument as it unfolds through the entire book and discusses the methodology used in the following chapters.
