Abstract
This essay unearths the metaphor from the Epistle to the Ephesians of âall things summed up into Christâ as a critical component of Lesslie Newbiginâs Christology. First, it shows that references to this image form an as yet undetected but consistent line of thought in Newbiginâs work. Second, it argues that the logic of Newbiginâs theological imaginary follows the logic embedded in the Ephesians metaphor. Third, it shows that detecting the particular shape of Newbiginâs Christology allows one to map his project onto wider Christological conversations, and it suggests that one most fruitfully reads him in the context of a supralapsarian Christological approach. Finally, it argues that read in this way, Newbiginâs work can once again make a fresh contribution to the conversation as contemporary practitioners are looking for a new narrative to support their work in this missional era.
