Download or read book Why We Belong written by Anthony L. Chute and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2013-06-30 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Denominations. The mention of the word is often enough to spark strong reactions, regardless of whether one is for or against them. This hopeful new volume, made up of contributions from prominent evangelical leaders, argues for the importance of denominations, highlighting their significant strengths while acknowledging potential weaknesses. Contributors from a variety of backgrounds (Anglican, Presbyterian, Baptist, Pentecostal, Lutheran, and Methodist) share their own personal stories related to why they identify with a particular tradition and yet still maintain a robust sense of evangelical unity across denominational lines. Far from merely highlighting differences, this book celebrates the unity that believers enjoy in the gospel for the purpose of fostering productive dialogue and increased understanding within the fragmented landscape of modern evangelicalism.

Download or read book Pathways to Christian Unity written by Arthur Black and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pathways to Christian Unity: A Free Church View This book is written at the request of the Swanwick Free Church Fellowship. Though it is not the result of any general conference, and the writers alone are responsible for what is written, it is probable that it is in many ways a representative book. It is the result of much consultation outside the small circle of writers and it adopts a line of approach which is characteristic of the younger generation of Christians. Repudiating the dogmatic and often doctrinaire attitude of older controversies, it takes its stand upon experience and judges theory from that standpoint. Seen in this light the Churches appear to be led by their ecclesiastical theories to pass judgments on each other which experience does not justify.

Download or read book The End of Protestantism written by Peter J. Leithart and published by Brazos Press. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Failure of Denominationalism and the Future of Christian Unity One of the unforeseen results of the Reformation was the shattering fragmentation of the church. Protestant tribalism was and continues to be a major hindrance to any solution to Christian division and its cultural effects. In this book, influential thinker Peter Leithart critiques American denominationalism in the context of global and historic Christianity, calls for an end to Protestant tribalism, and presents a vision for the future church that transcends post-Reformation divisions. Leithart offers pastors and churches a practical agenda, backed by theological arguments, for pursuing local unity now. Unity in the church will not be a matter of drawing all churches into a single, existing denomination, says Leithart. Returning to Catholicism or Orthodoxy is not the solution. But it is possible to move toward church unity without giving up our convictions about truth. This critique and defense of Protestantism urges readers to preserve and celebrate the central truths recovered in the Reformation while working to heal the wounds of the body of Christ.
