Jesus Christ Our Lord

Of the life and work of Jesus, the apostle John said, 'Even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written' (John 21:25). Acknowledging the size of the task, as well as its importance, Dr. John F. Walvoord has written this systematic presentation of the Person and work of Christ from eternity past to eternity future. Beginning with an analysis of modern trends in the study of Christology, Dr. Walvoord shows that 'contemporary Christology has in many respects confused rather than clarified the extended revelation of the Word of God.' The Word of God forms the solid basis for Dr. Walvoord's entire study. Analyzing the Old Testament, he shows Christ in its history, typology, and prophecy. Then, in the New Testament, he examines the life and work of the incarnate Christ. The doctrines of atonement, redemption, propitiation, and reconciliation are thoroughly and clearly discussed. The book concludes with an examination of the present and future work of Christ, thus giving the reader a comprehensive study of Christology

JOHN F. WALVOORD (A.B., D.D., Wheaton College; A.M., Texas Christian University; Th.B., Th.M., Th.D., Dallas Theological Seminary) was a recognized authority on systematic theology and eschatology. Dr. Walvoord was chancellor emeritus and professor emeritus of systematic theology at Dallas Theological Seminar, and a past president of the Evangelical Theological Society. Dr. Walvoord specialized in the field of biblical eschatology for more than thirty years. His academic background plus extensive travel in the Middle East made him unusually capable of preparing theological and eschatological studies. He was the author of numerous books on theology, especially biblical prophecy, including The Revelation of Jesus Christ and Daniel: The Key to Prophetic Revelation. 12/2002
