In both biblical studies and systematic theology, modern treatments of the person of Christ have cast doubt on whether a more traditional doctrine of God—in which God is immutable, impassible, eternal, and simple—can fit together with the revelation of God in Christ. This book explains how the Jesus revealed in Scripture comports with a classical Christian understanding of God. The author argues that the Bible's Christology coheres with and even requires the affirmation of traditional divine attributes.

This longstanding question has been addressed by Christian theologians throughout the church’s history. Some, such as Thomas Aquinas, argued for the role of natural revelation. Others, including Karl Barth, emphasized the importance of God's revelation in Jesus Christ and Scripture. Recent theological reflection has also explored the relationship between metaphysical and biblical approaches to the doctrine of God.

Steven J. Duby examines the doctrine of divine simplicity. This discussion is centered around the three distinguishing features: grounding in biblical exegesis, use of Thomas Aquinas and the Reformed Orthodox; and the writings of modern systematic and philosophical theologians. Duby outlines the general history of the Christian doctrine of divine simplicity and discusses the methodological traits and essential contents of the dogmatic account. He substantiates the claims of the doctrine of divine simplicity by demonstrating that they are implied and required by the scriptural account of God. Duby considers how simplicity is inferred from God’s singularity and aseity, as well as how it is inferred from God's immutability and infinity, and the Christian doctrine of creation.
