Essential for Modern Theological Work
Christology was the central doctrine articulated by the early church councils, and it remains the subject of vigorous theological investigation today. The study of the doctrine of Christ is a field of broad ecumenical convergence, inviting theologians from all denominational settings to fruitful collaborative exploration. In the contemporary setting, it is especially crucial for theologians to investigate the scriptural witness afresh, to retrieve classical criteria and categories from the tradition, and to consider the generative pressure of soteriology for Christology proper.
The first annual Los Angeles Theology Conference sought to make a positive contribution to contemporary dogmatics in intentional engagement with the Christian tradition.Christology, Ancient and Modernbrings together conference proceedings, surveying the field and articulating the sources, norms, and criteria for constructive theological work in Christology.

P ROCEEDINGS OF THE L OS A NGELES T HEOLOGY C ONFERENCE
This is the first volume in a series that will be published by Zondervan Academic. It is the published proceedings of the inaugural Los Angeles Theology Conference held under the auspices of the Torrey Honors Institute of Biola University with the support of Fuller Theological Seminary, in January 2013. The conference is an attempt to do several things. First, it provides a regional forum in which scholars, students, and clergy can come together to discuss and reflect on central doctrinal claims of the Christian faith. It is also an ecumenical endeavor. Bringing together theologians from a number of different schools and confessions, the LATC seeks to foster serious engagement with Scripture and tradition in a spirit of collegial dialogue (and disagreement), looking to retrieve the best of the Christian past in order to forge theology for the future. Finally, each volume in the series will focus on a central topic in dogmatic theology, beginning with Christology. It is hoped that this endeavor will fructify contemporary systematic theology and foster a greater understanding of the historic Christian faith among the members of its different communions.

T HERE CAN BE NO C HRISTIANITY without Christ. There can be no Christian doctrine without Christology. And there can be no future for a church that does not take seriously the dogmatic task of thinking through the implications of the biblical and ecclesiastical traditions and what they say about the person and work of Christ in order to equip the church for today and tomorrow. This volume of essays is offered to the public on the understanding that doctrinal theology requires serious and patient engagement with the Christian tradition, with retrieval of the ideas of past theologians, councils, and creeds, and with the creative task of forging contemporary constructive restatements of such doctrine for the church and academy today.
Theology that ignores the tradition is a thin, insipid thing. It also runs the risk of repeating mistakes that could be avoided by developing greater familiarity with the missteps of our forebears. If theologians do not attempt to dialogue with the past, retrieving the ideas of past thinkers without asset-stripping them, paying attention to the warp and weft of historic theology and the way in which the past may fructify the present, then we risk cutting off our noses to spite our respective faces. We can learn history from those who have gone before us. But they can also teach us how we ought to think, and furnish us with concepts, notions, and doctrines that will ensure our theologies are much healthier than would otherwise be the case.
