The author suggests that Absolute Being exists in opposition to the Dissolutive Nothing and that these two entities cannot be conceived separately as they co-depend on each other for definition. The primordial creation of the universe is thus the combined effect of God and the Dissolutive Nothing. The created universe, in turn, is not pure emanation from God but created from Nothing by the Absolute Being, with the Dissolutive Nothing as a mediative and deterministic principle. The book applies this belief system to the Christian conception of Christ, who, as God's son, encapsulates the redemptive qualities of God's creation as a means to atone for the sins of humanity. According to the author, these sins are the result of humanity being hewn from a created, rather than divine, essence and can only be atoned for through a personal relationship with the redemptive Christ figure. The text concludes by describing the significance of Christ as a unified entity, existing as the eternal and temporal incarnation of God, the divine-phenomenal nature, and the redemptive pathway between Absolute Being and the created universe.
