^{page 501 note 2} This argument plays an important role in supporting Mclntyre's major thesis, which is that christological thinking involves a wide range of ‘givens’, models, and methods. Mclntyre contends that no one given (such as scripture), no one model (such as revelation), and no one method (such as exegesis) should be allowed to overshadow the significance of other givens (such as Christ's contemporary presence), other models (such as the model of the two natures), or other methods (such as the historical method). His argument against the development of the doctrine of the divinity of Christ from revelation is intended to show that the revelation model cannot, by itself, establish crucial christological affirmations and that, therefore, it must be augmented by other models.

^{page 505 note 3} In our view, there is no major shift in Barth's position. In contrast to Mclntyre, we believe that throughout the Church Dogmatics Barth maintains a concept of revelation which might be indicated by the formula B (A) reveals B (E) to C (Holy Spirit). However, to be true to Barth, in this formula A would not designate the ordinary man Jesus as it does in Mclntyre's models, but rather the human nature of Jesus Christ, which is a creaturely reality but not a complete person in itself. For a more thorough analysis of this problem than can be given here, see my recently completed Ph.D. dissertation, Karl Barth's Alexandrian Christology, (Harvard University, 1975), especially chapters two and three. See also our discussion of Barth later in this paper.

^{page 506 note 1} McIntyre, p. 160. McIntyre's discussion of whether Barth is Nestorian is included here because it indicates graphically that McIntyre concludes that Barth conceives of Jesus as a complete human person over against the person of God. In a moment, we shall argue that Barth's position is different from this interpretation.
