William Barclay: Many Witnesses, One Lord ... To speak of the pre-existence of the Son is to say that God did not begin to redeem men when Jesus came into the world, but that throughout all ages the redeeming power and the sacrificial work of God has been at work.

I do not think William Barclay was a Christian. In his autobiography he clearly states that he was not a Trinitarian. He did not believe that Jesus is God.

Hick, John: The Myth of God Incarnate "For many people, the incarnation of God in Jesus Christ is the essence of Christianity.

This reinterpretation of the doctrine of the incarnation has been criticized as sensational and destructive, but the authors declare a constructive purpose.
