Cur Deus Homo?

Cur Deus Homo?

By Peter Leithart

A further, pithier refinement of a post from yesterday:

Why did God become man? He became man to kill man.

Why did God become man? He became man to raise us from the dead.

Peter Leithart

Peter J. Leithart is President of Theopolis Institute. He is the author of numerous books on theology, literature, and culture, including Theopolitan, Defending Constantine, and Baptized Body.
