Contents:
The conception of the human being in Torrance : persons in relation -- Trinitarian personhood : the ontological ground of the human person and personhood -- The humanity of Christ : the onto-relational restoration of the human person and personhood -- The sacramental and diaconal action of the church : the personal and relational outworking of Christ's new humanity -- Conclusion.
Summary: "Hakbong Kim explores Thomas F. Torrance's critiques of the dualist and individualistic views concerning human beings in the history of philosophy and theology. This book sheds important light on Torrance's understanding of humans as persons in relation, the trinitarian personhood as the ontological foundation for human personhood, and the humanity of Christ as key to the personalization necessary for a new moral, ethical, and social life. This presents a Christocentric anthropology and ethics, which focuses on Christ's ongoing reconciling and humanizing ministry for us"--Page 4 of cover.
