Horton argues that while we invoke the name of Christ, too often Christ and the Christ-centered gospel are pushed aside.

More than simply a series of chapters on the theology of John's Gospel, Jesus Is the Christ relates each of John's teachings to his declared aim, expressed in John 20: 30-31: "Jesus did many other signs before his disciples, which have not been written in this book, but these have been written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name." Indeed, each chapter in Morris's book takes...

In this clear and concise introduction to second-century christologies, James Papandrea sets out five of the principal images of Christ that dominated the postapostolic age.
