Synopsis

A rigorous look at how the early church defined Jesus as divine and central to history.

This nonfiction work argues that the early Christian testimony about Jesus remains the most reliable guide to who he was and what he meant to the world. It presents a careful examination of conflicting methods in biblical study and why the evangelists’ portrait has enduring historical weight. In The Lord of Glory, Warfield analyzes how beliefs about Jesus formed from eyewitness testimony and continuity with early Christian faith. It explains why some critics strive to separate the historical Jesus from the Christ proclaimed by the first communities, and what that means for understanding Christian history.

• Explores the early church’s unanimous view of Jesus and what that implies for historical accuracy
• Discusses how modern critics challenge gospel portraits and what remains defensible
• Clarifies terms and titles used for Jesus across a broad spectrum of designations
• Offers a framework for evaluating historical evidence without overreaching conclusions

Ideal for readers of theological history, biblical studies, and Christian apologetics seeking a clear, conservative take on how Jesus was understood in the origins of Christianity. The Lord of Glory examines key questions about the Jesus of history and the Christianity that history produced.
