“Man is not only spiritual, however, but also corporeal. If he were entirely spiritual no further efforts would be required of him. As long as man remains on earth, however, the new righteousness, which has been imputed to him fully, according to his spiritual nature, is never present in final form, but always in an incipient and incomplete state.”
Lohse examines various periods of the church's history from the first century to the present as he takes up, one by one, the dogmas and doctrines that constitute milestones in the story of the church's effort to proclaim the message of Jesus Christ to each age.
