Incarnation: The Person and Life of Christ

Incarnation: The Person and Life of Christ is the first substantial christology from an English-speaking theologian since H. R. Mackintosh, Torrance's teacher, gave us The Doctrine of the Person of Jesus Christ in 1912. Torrance insists repeatedly that the being of Christ and the work of Christ must be understood in mutual relation. [...]classical christology has to be interpreted 'soteriologically and eschatologically', for the advent of Christ is about the 'breaking in of the eschatological kingdom' (p. 20). [...]we are all judged in him but also elected to salvation in him.
