God in One Person

This text defends a special focus on Jesus in theistic faith, whilst denying his divinity. Having limited the genuine choice in Christology to orthodoxy or unitarianism, it argues first for the prior improbability of an incarnation, examining and dismissing possible justifications.

Inhalt
Part 1 Introductory: the narrow choice; the agreed background. Part 2 The prior improbability of an incarnation: does God intervene in history?; why would God become incarnate?; how could God become incarnate?; how could God incarnate be recognized?. Part 3 Incarnation as a needless explanation of the Christ event: does the miraculous indicate divinity?; do the resurrection reports accredit divinity?; do other factors point to divinity?; does all his teaching befit divinity. Part 4 The place of Jesus in non-incarnational faith: seeking to understand the real Jesus; why then the special focus on Jesus?; an attractive and viable faith.
