| Summary: | This article examines distinctive features of the christology associated with the Mercersburg Theology of John W. Nevin—its Irenaean framework, affirmation of the “fallen” and “generic” humanity of Christ, and its pneumatological emphasis. It also examines certain interpretive questions having to do with the place of christology within the larger Mercersburg system, whether the incarnation would have occurred apart from sin, and the fundamental character of the Mercersburg Theology. Finally, the implications of the Mercersburg christology for Reformed ressourcement are explored. |
