A Calm Inquiry Into the Scripture Doctrine Concerning the Person of ChristLulu.com, 31 mar 2009 - 378 Thomas Belsham (1750-1829) was an influential English Unitarian minister and theologian. In this book Belsham argues at length for his humanitarian unitarian Christology, giving his reading of all the relevant New Testament texts, and interacting with numerous objections and alternative readings. In the final section of the book, Belsham classifies and critically weighs all the major approaches to Christology. This volume ends with a short biographical entry on Belsham from the Dictionary of National Biography.This is an unedited reprint of the second edition of 1817.For other books on the Trinity and the Incarnation, visit trinities.org/books. |
