This richly synthetic reading of Paul offers a compelling argument
that the heart of Pauls soteriology lies in theosis the
incorporation of Gods people into the life and character of the God
revealed in the cross. Michael Gorman deftly integrates the results
of recent debates about Pauline theology into a powerful
constructive account that overcomes unfruitful dichotomies and
transcends recent controversies between the New Perspective on Paul
and its traditionalist critics. Gormans important book points the
way forward for understanding the nonviolent, world-transforming
character of Pauls gospel. Richard B. Hays / Duke Divinity School /
Provides an important corrective to segmentalized approaches to
Paul. Michael Gorman lucidly connects justification to spiritual
transformation. Faith, love, and action come together as theosis
the taking on of the character of Christ and, so, of God. Though
constantly in conversation with other scholars, Gorman has a
refreshingly original approach, illuminating the lively theology of
Paul. Inhabiting the Cruciform God clearly advances the field of
Pauline studies. Stephen Finlan / Fordham University / In this
pioneering work Michael Gorman offers a fresh way to view Pauls
understanding of justification and holiness. Cutting a new path
through old territory, Gorman leads us to a vision of holiness and
justification rooted in the transforming power of nonviolence and
the cross. His work will provide pastors with new insights for
preaching and scholars with new ways to address old questions.
