This study offers a theological rationale for an exegetical
possibility and enriches a dogmatic account of the humanity of the
Christ. "The Christ's Faith" coheres with orthodox Christology and
Reformation soteriology, and needs to be affirmed to properly
confirm the true humanity of the incarnate Son. Without addressing
the interpretation of the Pauline phrase pistis christou, this
study offers a theological rationale for an exegetical possibility
and enriches a dogmatic account of the humanity of the Christ.The
coherence of the Christ's faith is shown in two ways. First, the
objection of Thomas Aquinas is refuted by demonstrating that faith
is fitting for the incarnate Son. Second, a theological ontology is
offered which affirms divine perfection and transcendence in
qualitative fashion, undergirding a Chalcedonian and Reformed
Christology. Thus, the humanity of the Christ may be construed as a
fallen human nature assumed by the person of the Word and
sanctified by the Holy Spirit.The dogmatic location of "The
Christ's Faith" is sketched by suggesting its (potential) function
within three influential theological systems: Thomas Aquinas,
federal theology, and Karl Barth. Furthermore, the soteriological
role of the doctrine is demonstrated by showing the theological
necessity of faith for valid obedience before God."T&T Clark
Studies in Systematic Theology" is a series of monographs in the
field of Christian doctrine, with a particular focus on
constructive engagement with major topics through historical
analysis or contemporary restatement.
