Episode 125: The Manner Of The Word's Incarnation: Terminative Assumption With James Dolezal Dec 25, 2023

Show notes

In Episode 125 of Theology In Particular, Dr. James Dolezal joins me to talk about the incarnation, especially the manner of the Word's assumption of a human nature. Two episodes will be devoted to this subject. In the first, Dr. Dolezal warns against two flawed ways of speaking about the Son's assumption of a human nature (nothing was subtracted from or added to the person of the Son). The second is a positive proposal of how to think and speak more accurately concerning the mystery of the incarnation.
