John Owen sought to illustrate the mystery of divine grace in the Person of Christ. Regarded as one of the most important post–Reformation works, Owen’s Christology illustrates the mystery of divine grace in the Person of Christ.
The Person of Christ: Declaring a Glorious Mystery – God and Man
The Apostle Paul told Timothy to "rightly divide" the word of truth (2 Timothy 2:15). He meant more than simply cutting it into paragraphs and chapters of course, though that can be a useful aid to understanding. John Owen's magnificent book on the person of Jesus Christ rightly handles the word about Truth Himself, in the midst of much confusion and controversy. And this edition presents that teaching in a helpfully divided up format - with chapter headings and simplified structures - that make it even more of a joy to read. This is not a superficial book, and superficial Christians will not read it. But those that do can expect meaty theology and practical piety of an exhilarating and challenging kind.
