236. Fully God, Fully Man: Calvin on the Person of Christ
Series MARSCAST
We're diving deep once again into John Calvin's monumental work, Institutes of the Christian Religion, focusing on the end of Book 2. Joining us to unpack these theological insights is Dr. J. Mark Beach, utilizing his commentary on the Institutes, Piety's Wisdom. In this episode, we'll explore Calvin's understanding of Christ as the mediator between God and humanity. Dr. Beach will guide us through Calvin's explanation of why Christ needed to be both fully God and fully man and how this enables Him to bridge the gap between sinful humanity and a just God. Dr. Beach will also discuss the historical context of Calvin's work, address common misconceptions, and examine how Calvin's theology refutes various Christological heresies that have cropped up throughout church history.
