God with Us: Knowing the Mystery of Who Jesus Is

How well do you know Jesus? He is, after all, the person you most need to know. In God with Us, Daniel R. Hyde explores the historic, orthodox understanding of the person called Emmanuel―God with us. Hyde carefully considers Jesus’s claims about Himself in the Bible, capturing why the ancient creeds rightly describe Jesus as fully God and fully man, and yet united in one divine person. Furthermore, Hyde shows how this mystery brings comfort to our lives, defines our witness to the world, and establishes our worship before the throne of God’s heavenly grace. A clear and practical introduction to classical Christology.
