Introduction to the Doctrine of Man in Relation to God

The study of the nature of mankind is called anthropology. The study of the nature of mankind as described in Scripture is called biblical anthropology. This category could therefore alternatively have been titled Biblical Anthropology. It covers issues such as the origin of man, the nature of man, what is meant by man being created in the image of God, the fall of man, the impact of sin, and the nature of divine grace.
