Excerpt from Getting Together: Essays by Friends in Council on the Regulative Ideas of Religious ThoughtAiming simply at exposition of fundamental principles, these Essays set aside the secondary questions of inferential theology and theological method. Christology has therefore been omitted as essentially a doctrine of functions. Jesus' Official designation, the Christ, i.e. The Anointed One, and his various titles Of Mediator, Prophet, Priest, the King of Israel, Shepherd, Saviour, etc clearly evince the fact that Christology belongs to the cate gory of method, not Of first principles. In the same secondary rank is the closely related doctrine of the Trinity, and its proper place is among other topics Of inferential theology. But whatever is of primary and permanent value in these two doctrines has found place in several of these Essays.It hardly need be added that each essayist has freely developed from his own point of View the thesis of his choice from the series Of propositions agreed to by all.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
