Language: English Brand New Book. Avery Dulles, well-known for several previous works in ecclesiology, including Models of the Church, here surveys a theme that demands new treatment in the present global and ecumenical context. He deals with questions that are vital for the identity of churches that designate themselves Catholic, and for the relationship between these churches and Protestant forms of Christianity. The prospects of Catholicism are realistically appraised. The Catholicity of the Church reproduces, in slightly revised form, the Martin D Arcy Lectures delivered by Fr Dulles at Campion Hall, University of Oxford. In theology such as this the seeds of real unity between divided Christendom are being sown. B.L. Horne, This is a fine book, providing a framework for fruitful dialogues among Christians of all traditions. Journal of Theological Studies Expository Times This is a refreshing and challenging book, and is of considerable ecumenical importance. Oliver Rafferty, The Month At the heart of ecclesiology is the concept of catholicity, and in tackling the nature of the Church s catholicity Fr Dulles has courageously addressed himself to the crucial ecumenical question. Roger Greenacre, Theology doing honour to the memory of Martin D Arcy both for its realism and for its renewal of our sense of Catholicism. Fergus Kerr, The Tablet.

Avery Dulles, well-known for several previous works in ecclesiology, including Models of the Church, here surveys a theme that demands new treatment in the present global and ecumenical context. Nearly all Christians profess allegiance to the holy catholic church, but the meaning of the term "catholic" is widely disputed. This book investigates the historical use of the word and the various aspects of catholicity. Beginning with the word's divine source in Christ as "the first-born of all creation," Dulles goes on to discuss such topics as the "catholic principle," Catholicism as a specific ecclesial type, and the possibility of a "Protestant Catholicism." He concludes by asking how, given the current "parochial" appearance of Christianity, any Christian church can plausibly claim to be catholic.

christian books and bibles,religion,religion and spirituality,theology, Catholicity" - the whole truth, the fulness of life and the universality of salvation in Christ within the Church is the author's point of reference as he discusses the nature of the Church in its inner life, in its ecumenical relationships and in its relations with the world at large. By placing the words catholicity and Church side by side, Fr Meyendorff focuses attention on the problems created by their opposition to each other while affirming that, There is no way in which one can claim to be a Christian except through concrete membership in the Catholic Church and through a continuous effort at manifesting in the Catholic Church and through a continuous effort at manifesting the catholicity of the Church. From this perspective, Meyendorff deals with creation and revelation, the nature and role of Christian history and tradition, ecumenical issues as seen against Protestant and Roman tendencies, and Orthodox ecclesiology and mission. Each subject is treated concretely as the author relates the catholic tradition to issues, practices and thought patterns of our contemporary age. This excellent volume is an important contribution to Christian witness and dialogue in an ecumenical context. Fr John Meyendorff was Professor of Church History and Patristics at St Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary, and professor of History at Fordham University, NY.
