Overview

In this volume, Gunton develops his conception of Christian Doctrine. Each essay addresses a topic of central importance in Trinitarian theology, ranging from the knowledge of God to the Christian sacraments. Together they reflect in particular on an increasing interest in the doctrine of the Holy Spirit and its bearing on the structure of the doctrine of the Trinity and its various sub-themes of Christology and soteriology etc.

“The second set of perils derives from the opposite tendency, which is using the doctrine to validate, on” (Page 24)

“The Spirit’s distinctive inner-trinitarian being is oriented not on inwardness, but on otherness: as perfecter both of the eternal divine communion—in which there is real distinction, otherness—and of God’s love for the other in creation and redemption.” (Page 86)

“First, it remains the case that any identification of God apart from Jesus of Nazareth is in danger of becoming an abstraction.” (Page 26)

“ All this is done without in the least wanting to suggest that the unity of God is in any way impugned” (Page 12)

“And that is something Irenaeus did not really do, tending simply to place the two hands side by side” (Page 81)

About Colin E. Gunton

Colin E. Gunton (1941-2003) was professor of systematic theology at King's College, London from 1969 until his death. He was appointed professor of theology in 1984 and then served as Head of the Department of Theology & Religious Studies from 1993-96. In 1992 Gunton delivered the Bampton Lectures at the University of Oxford and in 1993 delivered the Warfield Lectures at Princeton Theological Seminary. Together with John Webster, Gunton co-founded the International Journal of Systematic Theology.

Gunton is often cited as one of the most important British theologians of his generation. Just before his death, he was awarded the earned D.D. by the University of Oxford, where he had taken his three previous degrees. Also just before his death, King's College had decided to make him a fellow of the college, its highest honor, which was then awarded posthumously.
