Jesus Christ

＂Who is Jesus?＂ This is the pivotal question of Christianity. From the earliest days of the Church to the present, Christian thinkers have grappled with this question and have attempted to respond to it with cogent and meaningful answers for the people of their respective cultures and times.

In this concise Christology, Thomas Noble draws upon Scripture, the Church Fathers, the Reformers, and modern and postmodern scholars as he surveys how the Church has answered the question about Jesus identity. With keen insight and precision, the author guides readers through the personal and relational implications that are intrinsic to the Church’s understanding of Jesus. Based on the first volume of the author’s monumental Christian Theology, this book is an invaluable resource for pastors, students, teachers, and laypeople.

Thomas A. Noble is research professor of theology at Nazarene Theological Seminary in Kansas City, Missouri, where he has taught for twenty-five years. Before that, he taught theology at Nazarene Theological College, Manchester, United Kingdom, where he is still a research fellow, supervising PhD research with the University of Manchester. He is a graduate of the Universities of Glasgow (MA) and Edinburgh (BD, PhD) and a past president of the Wesleyan Theological Society and of the T. F. Torrance Theological Fellowship.
