This is a book which concerns itself with the principle doctrines of the historic Christian faith. It's theme could be labeled "unity through diversity" or perhaps more accurately "consensus amid conflict." Throughout the two thousand year history of the Church Christians have articulated their understanding of Christ in various and in sometimes sharply divergent ways. Yet within this diversity a consensus emerges that may be termed "historic Christian belief." The Trinity, Incarnation, the Death and Resurrection of Christ, the Church and Last Things are a few of the doctrines discussed in this book. Broadman-Holman, 2001 |
