Union with Christ is the first extensive work on the Christology of
Swiss theologian Adolf Schlatter (1852-1938). It offers fresh
insights not only to readers interested in Adolf Schlatter's
theology in particular, but also to students and professionals from
the historical and dogmatic disciplines in general. The first part
of the book sets the scene by tracing the biographical context of
Schlatter's Christological thinking. It explores Schlatter's
evaluation of Kantianism, of the revival movement, of Ritschl and
the Ritschl school, and of dialectical theologians, particularly
Karl Barth. Based on this analysis, the second part of the work
examines the dogmatic shape of Schlatter's relational Christology
in more detail. From the perspective of Schlatter's theological
triad of seeing-act, thinking-act, and life-act, it investigates
his relational account of Jesus Christ against the backdrop of a
distinct Trinitarian framework. According to Schlatter, Jesus
reveals his divinity on the cross as he is able to maintain
fellowship with God in spite of God-forsakenness - mediated by the
Holy Spirit - and he reveals his humanity by remaining in close
communion with sinners, transforming them and gathering them into
the new community of faith.
