The Second Man: The Lord from Heaven

The central thesis of this book is: did God robe Himself in earthly human flesh or did He come in His own heavenly flesh? The belief that Christ’s flesh is heavenly will be shown to be a bedrock teaching in the Bible. Conversely, to believe that Jesus assumed human flesh - having its origin in the lowly dust - leaves one with a distorted view of the identity of the One True God in Christ and, sadly, a diminished view of His resplendent glory. It will be argued that a wrong understanding of the Word made flesh (John 1:14) doctrine (Christology) impacts negatively on a series of other foundational doctrines in the Bible among which are baptism in Jesus name and the Lord’s Supper.
