At the end of the twentieth century the forces of race, gender,
ethnicity, culture, social status, lifestyle and sexual orientation
threaten to disassemble any universal notion of "human nature" or
"human condition". In light of this historical moment and its
challenges, the Christian doctrine of humanity is ripe for
clarification and restatement. This theological task, argues
Sherlock, demands a "double focus." Both the human image of God and
the particular realities of human existence must be brought into
sharper, more detailed focus. Only then will we begin to understand
human nature in the light of divine revelation. Sherlock notably
engages the communal dimension of humanity in its creational,
social and cultural aspects before examining the human person as
individual, as male and female, and as whole being. The Doctrine of
Humanity is a timely and engaging look at what it means to be human
on the continuum between our creation in the divine image and our
hope of re-creation in the image of Christ.
