| Summary: | This essay argues that unlike many contemporary christological anthropologies that begin with protology or eschatology, T. F. Torrance's christological anthropology begins with the incarnate Christ as he confronts us in the midst of God’s redemptive act. This approach is labeled Soteriological-Christological Anthropology. Torrance himself does not develop this anthropological method in a sustained manner, therefore, this essay attempts to develop Torrance's method by examining his doctrine of Christ's fallen human nature and his epistemology. After developing Torrance's Soteriological-Christological Anthropology the challenges and prospects of this view are addressed. |
