This book examines the New Testament teaching that Christ was the one through whom        God made the world. While scholars usually interpret this doctrine as arising from        the equation of Jesus and the Wisdom of God, Sean McDonough argues that it had its        roots in the church's memories of Jesus' miracles. These memories, coupled with the        experience of spiritual renewal in the early church, established Jesus as the        definitive agent of God's new creation in the New Testament writings and        theteachings of the Early Church.Following the logic that 'the end is like the        beginning' Christ was taken to be the agent of primal creation. This insight was        developed in light of Old Testament creation texts, viewed from within a 'messianic        matrix' of interpretation. God gives his Word, his Spirit, and his Wisdom to his        Messiah from the very beginning; and the Messiah, the radiance of God's glory,        establishes the cosmos in accordance with God's purposes. Creation is the beginning        of messianic dominion; he rules the world hemade.McDonough carefully substantiates        his thesis through a detailed exegesis of the relevant New Testament texts in the        context of related texts in Judaism and Greco-Roman philosophy. He concludes with a        survey of the doctrine of Christ as Creator in the work of six theologians: Justin        Martyr, Irenaeus, Athanasius, Karl Barth, Jrgen Moltmann, and Wolfhart        Pannenberg.
