All About God in Christ

By Herbert Lockyer

Book Overview

The classic "All Series" books have graced the shelves of pastors, students, and laypeople alike for decades. All about God in Christ continues in the series' tradition of offering a faithful and comprehensive treatment of biblical subjects. This rich examination details the life of Jesus-His birth, life, death, resurrection, and reign in heaven. God came to earth in the form of a human. The awesome implications of this are systematically explored in this edifying book. "Our Lord became not God and Man, but 'the God-Man.' He was truly 'God manifest in the flesh!' That man should be made in God's image was a wonder, but that God should be made in man's image is a greater wonder." Jesus experienced human frailties, temptations, and frustrations. He overcame these as only God could and proclaimed the message of salvation that the church must continue to proclaim today. Jesus began a new era of personal intimacy with the divine: "In Jesus His disciples could gaze upon the glory of God and live." In meditating on Jesus Christ as fully divine and fully human, Lockyer reminds us that "it is the constant presence of Christ within us that keeps our lives like His own."
