About this title

Synopsis

This is a print on demand book and is therefore non- returnable.

This book focuses on the understanding of our humanity (anthropology) in the light of the doctrine of Christ (Christology). Hughes opens with a doctrinal discussion on man's creation in the image of God, continues by considering the effects of man's fallenness resulting from the rejection of that image, and concludes with a detailed study on the restoration of the image through the redemption provided by God in Christ.

About the Author
