Why Start Here
This site is structured as a theological work, not as a collection of independent articles.
Because the arguments presented throughout the project are cumulative, reading order matters. Concepts introduced early are assumed later, and conclusions reached in one discipline inform the next.
This page exists to orient new readers and provide a clear path through the work.
How the Work Is Structured
Christ Rooted DIT is organized by disciplines rather than topics. Each discipline addresses a foundational theological question and builds upon a shared biblical anthropology rooted in Genesis 2:7.
The disciplines are not interchangeable. They are arranged deliberately, reflecting the conviction that theology must proceed from the nature of the human being before addressing sin, salvation, or divine identity.
Readers are therefore encouraged to follow the order outlined below rather than selecting articles at random.
Recommended Reading Path
- Anthropology
What is a human being?
This discipline establishes the biblical account of human emergence, identity, and life. Everything that follows depends on this foundation. - Theology
Who is God?
With anthropology in place, theology proceeds to examine divine identity without importing assumptions from later doctrinal systems. - Christology
Who is Christ?
This section explores how divine identity is revealed through Jesus as a human soul-being, grounded in the prior disciplines. - Hamartiology
What is sin?
Sin is examined not as moral failure alone, but as a disruption of life rooted in false anthropological assumptions. - Soteriology
What is salvation?
Salvation is addressed as union with divine life rather than mere legal resolution. - Ecclesiology
What is the Church?
The nature of the Church is considered in light of shared identity rather than institutional definition. - Eschatology
What is the end?
Resurrection and future hope are examined as the culmination of restored human identity.
Articles and Rebuttals
In addition to the core disciplinary structure, the site includes standalone articles and rebuttals.
Articles expand on specific questions that arise within the disciplines and are best read after completing the relevant section.
Rebuttals address common objections and alternative frameworks. They are intended for readers already familiar with the project’s foundations and should not be treated as entry points.
How to Read This Work Well
This work assumes careful reading.
Disagreement is expected, but meaningful engagement requires following the argument as it unfolds rather than isolating individual statements.
Readers are encouraged to resist importing external definitions into the text and instead allow Scripture’s own categories to govern interpretation.
Begin Here
Readers new to the project should begin with the Anthropology discipline and proceed sequentially.
