“What are human beings that you are mindful of them, mortals that you care for them ? (Psalm 8:4)
The psalmist's question goes to the heart of theological anthropology—what is the relative importance of humanity in the midst of the rest of God’s creation, especially the vastness of the heavenly realms? The task of theological anthropology is to answer this question. A satisfying theological anthropology will be engaged in both a direct and an indirect account of human beings in relation to God: directly, consulting the Bible for the terms, categories, and schemas that are to be found in the layers of its manifold witness; indirectly, considering the implications of other doctrines and approaching theological anthropology through them. Delving into the question from both biblical and dogmatic directions, the essays from the 2018 Los Angeles Theology Conference provide the reader with a rich feast of dogmatic explorations on theological anthropology. The Christian doctrine of humanity is a vast and complex doctrinal subject that needs to be elaborated with careful attention to its relation to other major doctrines. It must confess the glory and misery of humanity, from creation in the image of God to the fall into a state of sin. It must reckon with a holism that spans distinctions between body, soul, and spirit, a unity that encompasses male and female, and racial and cultural difference. Without offering a systematic account of the doctrine of humanity, these are rich and rewarding studies that repay careful reading toward a more systematic-theological understanding of our place in God’s creation. |
