This study examines some key approaches to ecumenical social ethics in the past century as expressed in the thought of Walter Rauschenbusch Reinhold Niebhur and the World Council of Churches.The author argues that unless Christians are clear about the ways that theology and philosophy relate to one another and work themselves out in our practical commitments we will lose the ability to discuss social ethics as individuals and churches let alone reach effective arguments.

With his customary encylopedic reach and epigrammatic style, Donald Bloesch turns to the hotly disputed, yet absolutely crucial, theological subject of the person and work of Jesus Christ. This volume includes illuminating discussion of humanity's plight, the Incarnation, the virgin birth, the relation between law and gospel, and the lordship and finality of Christ.

CHRISTIAN FOUNDATIONS

Jesus Christ is the fourth volume of Donald Bloesch's comprehensive seven-volume systematic theology. Also available are the first three volumes in the series: A Theology of Word & Spirit, Holy Scripture and God the Almighty. Subsequent volumes will examine the work of the Holy Spirit, the church and the sacraments, and eschatology.

Besides contributing significantly to late modern evangelical theology, Christian Foundations will be of value to reflective Christians who wonder what ancient faith has to say to perplexing new times. It will be of special help to students who want to hold to orthodoxy but honestly engage contemporary thought.
