“Christ, as the ultimate Imago Dei is alluded to in scripture as being without external beauty in the Classical sense, and should better be thought of as one who passed through all the slime and mire of a fallen and sinful creation in order to redeem it. His own body is to be remembered for the marks it bears-even in resurrection-of the scars of his sacrificial death. For the Christian, a theory of beauty might better begin at this point.” ShouldBodyMightChristianOrderChristBeautyCreationTheoryBearsUltimateMarkScriptureRememberedFallenScarResurrectionSlimeExternal Beauty Author:John Walford
