The Christology of Rudolf Steiner: Exploring the Spiritual Reality at the Heart of Christianity, (Paperback)

<p><strong>This thought-provoking book distils Rudolf Steiner's extensive teachings on the gospels and the life of Christ into a clear and comprehensive overview.</strong></p> <p>At the heart of Steiner's anthroposophy is his teaching on the incarnation, death and resurrection of Christ, which he saw as the turning point in humanity's evolution. Steiner's Christology, however, differs from that taught in many mainstream churches, and can present a challenge to someone getting to grips with his complex and wide-ranging ideas.</p> <p>In this fascinating book, Willem Veltman explores Steiner's substantial thoughts on the gospels and the life of Christ. He looks in particular at the births of the two Jesus children as recorded in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, and how they eventually became one in the figure of Jesus of Nazareth. He explores Steiner's account of Jesus's 'missing' years, and the profound experiences that prepared Jesus for baptism in the Jordan river. Veltman also goes beyond the gospel accounts of Christ's death and resurrection to consider what is meant by the second coming and the apocalypse, and the significance these have for the ongoing evolution of humanity.</p> <p>This engaging book will be a useful resource for anyone searching for a deeper understanding of Rudolf Steiner's ideas and insights about Christ.</p>
