Publisher's Synopsis
In Psalm 8:4, King David asks, "What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?" The Bible is God's communication to man. The earnest student of the Bible must be able to define what constitutes a man clearly. The man of God does not need to know what man thinks about himself, but rather, what does the Bible reveals about mankind?
This book is part of the study of Systematic Theology. With it, Pastor Michael D. McCubbins, Th.D., an internationally acclaimed Bible scholar, will help you see the study of Anthropology from a Biblical point of view. This is not a study of secular or Christian anthropology, but what God has revealed in the Bible about man.
With this book, you will be able to define:
- The origin of mankind (creation or evolution)
- The difference between the image of God placed in man and woman
- The difference between the "image" and the "likeness" of God placed in mankind
- The dichotomist and tricotomist viewpoints, according to the Bible
- The fall of man
I trust that this book will help you clearly define the doctrine of Biblical anthropology.
