By Robert Lawrence Ottley

Book Overview

The Doctrine of the Incarnation by Robert L. Ottley is a comprehensive exploration of the Christian doctrine of the Incarnation. Ottley delves into the historical, theological, and philosophical aspects of the Incarnation, examining its development in early Christian thought and its implications for modern theology. He discusses the various controversies and debates surrounding the doctrine, including the debates over the nature of Christ's divinity and humanity, the role of the Holy Spirit, and the relationship between the divine and human aspects of Christ's person. Ottley also examines the implications of the Incarnation for Christian ethics and spirituality, exploring how the doctrine shapes our understanding of the nature of God, humanity, and the world. Written in a clear and accessible style, The Doctrine of the Incarnation is an essential resource for anyone interested in understanding the central Christian doctrine of the Incarnation.1896. This work, containing both original volumes, is primarily intended for theological students. The writer's aim was to meet a want which he believed to exist: the want of a compendious and plain introduction to the doctrine of the Incarnation, giving a connected outline of the theology and doctrinal history which may be studied separately in more minutely in larger books.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
