Description and Table of Contents

Description

The intent of this book is accurately indicated by the sub-title. By the application of a rather original methodology, Sinclair finds that in each of the six undisputed letters of Paul there is a distinctive Christology elaborated by Paul in response to the specific pastoral problem or concern of the respective letter. This well reasoned hypothesis helps explain certain apparent contradictions or inconsistencies in Paul's theology: the specific christologies are reflections of diverse pastoral contexts which Paul was addressing, rather than essays at systematic theology. In the course of this intensive and insightful study of the pertinent Pauline texts, Sinclair finds indications of Paul's own pastoral theology: namely, that in Jesus' crucifixion, resurrection, and Spirit is found God's own answer to every problem.
