Christ in Perspective in the Theology of Karl Barth John Thompson

Karl Barth is the foremost theologian of the twentieth century, some would say since Thomas Aquinas. Our understanding of Jesus- our Christology- is crucial to Christian faith. It is the touchstone by which everything else stands or falls, and it is at the centre of the present-day theological debate. In this study, Professor Thompson brings the two together. He seeks to understand Barth on Christ. In his words, "to let Barth be heard on a central (indeed the central) theme of his theology". It is the first comprehensive treatment of its kind and one which proves to be very relevant for our discussions about Jesus today. John Thompson hails from Bushmills, Co. Antrim, Northern Ireland. He studied at the universities of Dublin, Belfast, Edinburgh, Basle and Tiibingen. For many years a parish minister, he commenced lecturing in the University of Dublin in the early sixties and thence moved to a post in the Presbyterian College, Belfast in 1970. He has since become its Professor of Systematic Theology. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Christ in Perspective in the Theology of Karl Barth (John Thompson)
