Summary
This chapter establishes Andrewes’ theology as intensely Christocentric and locates the doctrines of the Trinity and the incarnation at its heart. In tracing the progression through the great feasts of the Christian year, from Christmas, through Easter to Whitsun, Andrewes showed how Christ, both God and man, combined with the other persons of the Trinity to effect the salvation of fallen humanity. In this way he grounded the life of faith and the spiritual progress of the Christian through the sacraments and ordinances of the church towards salvation both in the liturgical year and in the great events of salvation history.
