In The Doctrine of the Incarnation Opened, an abridgement of Edward
Irving's (1792-1834) sermons, readers have fresh access to and
insightful comment on Irving's distinctive views regarding the
person of Jesus Christ. The book follows the sermons in a logical
progression: the goal and method of the incarnation, the events of
the incarnate life and the death of Christ, and the effects of the
incarnation. For Irving, God the Son's assumption of a fallen human
nature was of the upmost importance, and garnered most attention.
This view also dominates Irving's soteriology, according to which
the incarnate Son takes over the human will, reforming the very
origin of sin, and offers obedience to the Father as a sacrifice of
praise. Irving's radical Christological thought informed the
thinking of notable theologians such as John McLeod Campbell,
Thomas F. Torrance, and Karl Barth. With an introduction by G.
McFarlane and a critical response by J.D. Cameron, The Doctrine of
the Incarnation Opened provides an accessible format to engage with
Irving's influential thoughts and ideas. Â
