The Knowledge of God turns to consider the knowledge of God revealed
in the Word of God, with several essays addressing the doctrine of
God, then the person of Christ, and finally the miracle of the church.
Michael Allen shows the exegetical shape of historical and dogmatic
reasoning as well as the significance of thinking about these topics
in their interrelationships with a range of other Christian themes,
not least the doctrine of the living and true God. In each of these
topics, the theme of the promise and nature of God's presence (whether
in his own life or then in the economy of the incarnation and of the
church) proves to be a unifying thread. The gospel is shown to be
rooted backward in God's own life and to have consequence forward for
the ongoing life of Christ displayed in his church. This volume
explores what it means to learn of and come to know God, who has life
in himself and then shares his life with us in the coming of his Son
and the ongoing presence amidst his body, the church of Christ.
