This led to his appointment as a professor of divinity at Street Mary"s College, University of Street Andrews, where he spent the remainder of his life. His only other, and more famous, work was God was in Christ (1948) which explored the paradox of grace, and applied it to incarnational theology. He was the brother of Scottish theologian John Baillie (1889-1960).
