For too long contemporary theology has downplayed the importance
of holding together the incarnation and the resurrection when
thinking theologically. Paul Molnar here surveys the place of these
key doctrines in the thought of several influential theologians:
Karl Barth, Karl Rahner, Thomas F. Torrance, John Macquarrie,
Gordon Kaufman, Sallie McFague, Roger Haight, John Hick, and
Wolfhart Pannenberg.
Molnar demonstrates that whenever the starting point for
interpreting the resurrection is not Jesus himself, the incarnate
Son of the Father, then Christology and Soteriology are undermined
because they are not properly rooted in a plausible doctrine of the
Trinity. Fair, comprehensive, and balanced, Molnar's analysis,
following Torrance and Barth, highlights the details of
contemporary theology of the resurrection linked to the incarnation
and maintains the necessity of the incarnation in its intrinsic
unity with the resurrection as the beginning, rather than the end,
of Christology.
