Book excerpt: There is today a dramatic reexamination of structure, authority, dogma -- indeed, every aspect of the life of the Church is held up to scrutiny. Welcoming this as a sign of vitality, Avery Dulles has carefully studied the writings of contemporary Protestant and Catholic ecclesiologists and sifted out six major approaches, or "models," through which the Church's character can be understood: as Institution, Mystical Communion, Sacrament, Herald, Servant, and, in a recent addition to the book, as Community of Disciples. A balanced theology, he concludes, must incorporate the major affirmations of each. "The method of models or types," observes Cardinal Dulles, "can have great value in helping people to get beyond the limitations of their own particular outlook and to enter into fruitful conversation with others... Such conversation is obviously essential if ecumenism is to get beyond its present impasses." This new edition includes a new Appendix and Preface by the author.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is a church? This can be a difficult question to answer and Christians have offered a variety of perspectives. Gregg Allison thus explores and synthesizes all that Scripture affirms about the new covenant people of God, capturing a full picture of the biblical church. He covers the topics of the church's identity and characteristics; its growth through purity, unity, and discipline; its offices and leadership structures; its ordinances of baptism and the Lord's Supper; and its ministries. Here is a rich approach to ecclesiology consisting of sustained doctrinal reflection and wise, practical application. Part of the Foundations of Evangelical Theology series.

Download or read book The Role of the Church in a Decaying World written by Manasseh Bewry and published by . This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Role of the Church in a Decaying World A Practical View There are many books that are written that deal exhaustively with the subject of Ecclesiology, or the Doctrine of the Church. This book is not intended to handle such matter. It is instead intended to address the Church's responsibility in today's society while maintaining its focus on its mission of spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ. It will address such matters as marriage and divorce, sexual promiscuity, wars, racism, abortion as well as a host of other socially related topics. In a society where human beings are getting less and less interested in matters of a religious nature partially due to the prevailing perceptions of the Church, the author takes a critical look at some of the things the Church must do to ensure that it is meeting its objectives of "making disciples of all nations through the gospel" while striving to improve the social condition of humanity in general. The author made no attempt to avoid controversial issues and at the end remained true to what the scripture had to say on each matter. Where scripture is not explicit, the author draws from exegesis, logics and experience in arriving at his conclusions. Rev. Dr. Manasseh L. Bewry (B.Sc., Th .M., Th .D.) is the co-founder of Bethel Deliverance Temple and is the founder of the Bethel Family Ministries (Internet and Tract Ministry). Some of his works include, Is There a Place Called Hell, To Believe or Not to Believe That is the Question, The Race to Everywhere but Anywhere and Coming to Christ Through the Truth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What would a theology of the Church look like that took seriously the fact that North America is now itself a mission field? This question lies at the foundation of this volume written by an ecumenical team of six noted missiologists—Lois Barrett, Inagrace T. Dietterich, Darrell L. Guder, George R. Hunsberger, Alan J. Roxburgh, and Craig Van Gelder. The result of a three-year research project undertaken by The Gospel and Our Culture Network, this book issues a firm challenge for the church to recover its missional call right here in North America, while also offering the tools to help it do so. The authors examine North America s secular culture and the church s loss of dominance in today s society. They then present a biblically based theology that takes seriously the church s missional vocation and draw out the consequences of this theology for the structure and institutions of the church.

Book excerpt: An important contribution to the ongoing discussion of the church's relationship to social development, this book contains the revised conference proceedings from the consultation The Church in Response to Human Need,Ó held in Wheaton, Illinois, in June of 1983. In the papers collected here writers from five continents consider whether the Bible indicates any method for ministry among the poor; the place of the poor in God's plan; God's purpose and the movement of human history; the nature of the gospel of the kingdom; and the interrelation of the gospel and human culture. In addition to the individual papers, the book includes the statement Transformation,Ó which was produced by the consultation as a whole.
