The Gospel and the Catholic Church

The book has more than historical interest for Anglicans. It has a distinct contribution to make to the doctrine of the church and the theology of minstry. -- James E. Griffiss Professor of Systematic Theology at Nashota House A classic theological study worthy of serious reading and thought. Ramseys careful--often moving and beautiful--exposition of his underlying conviction includes deep probing of the Bible a survey of the unfolding understanding of Christ and the church a profound insight into the being of the church as a dying and rising again with Christ an appreciation of Eastern Orthodox thought a testimonial to the positive intentions--even the necessity--of the Reformers a theologically-grounded advocacy of renewed liturgical worship and a passion for the reunion of all Christians. --Andrew F. Wissemann Bishop of Western Massachusetts from the Preface to the American Edition
