The primary goal of this study is to offer a careful analysis of the apostle Paul’s understanding of the person of Christ, that is, who it was who came among us and why he did so. I argue that Christ came among us for two basic reasons: first, to reveal the true nature and character of the eternal God and, second, to redeem us from our fallen, and thus broken, condition. But to get to those conclusions it seems wise to begin where Paul himself began: with what Christ did for us through his incarnation, including his life, crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension. The reason for beginning here is that what Christ accomplished by revelation and redemption (his work) is based altogether on who he was and is (his person). His work and his person are so tied together in Paul’s view that we can begin to understand his person by first examining his work. Parts 1 and 2, therefore, offer an overview of the Apostle’s understanding of Christ’s saving work—the doctrinal locus that theologians refer to as soteriology. Before turning in part 2 to Christ’s work as creator of a new humanity, in part 1 we focus on his work as Savior of humanity by examining how Paul views Jesus as both the divine Savior (chap. 1) and the preexistent and incarnate Savior (chap. 2).
