N2  - The book explores classical topics in theological anthropology from the perspectives of Reformed, Lutheran, Roman Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox traditions. It highlights the diversity—and at times, apparent tensions—among these theological perspectives, all of which remain within the bounds of God's word. In this compelling work, Kristanto offers insights into biblical concepts, draws on his extensive research in the history of theology, and addresses contemporary intellectual challenges. By weaving these elements together in a highly accessible manner, Kristanto effectively demonstrates the continued relevance of the biblical understanding of humanity for both the Church and society
