I still not sure what I think about Robert Jenson's words about the church in the second volume of his systematic theology. Any thoughts?
"Christ is personally the second identity of God, and the totus Christus [total Christ, or whole Christ] is Christ with the church; therefore the church is not in the same way an opus ad extra [something extra as in something other than God] as is the creation, even when it [the creation] is perfected in God."
Does he put the church too close to the divine or is he giving a broader understanding of "Christ?"
