VG in orig. red wrapper. 132 p.; 21.5 cm. From the Epilogue: `(vii) No nation is sufficient to itself in its understanding of Christianity, any more than in anything else. The world- wide community of Christians, mostly through the World Council of Churches and the global fellowship of the Church of Rome, but also in other ways, is seeking and already beginning to find a common mind on many great isssues. It is the height of folly and sin for the Churches in any country to proceed on their own way as if this were not happening. (viii) Conferences, councils, negotiations, propositions and schemes are all necessary, and it is not high-minded but unrealistic, and sometimes arrogant, to despise them. But they are useless unless the Spirit of God has been allowed to implant in the minds and imaginations of those who take part in them the vision of the Holy Catholic Church made visibly one, not by human ingenuity, but by divine love and power, and possessing a holiness beyond human ability to conceive or create. The Lord of the Church still reigns; he requires of his people not success, but faithfulness and love.' (p. 125). Binding is Paperbound.

But can we ascribe this authority to the Pope,or to the Creeds, or to the consensus of the Church Catholic, or to reason,or to the spiritual insight or Inner Light of the individual Christian,orto Christian experience,or to conscience,or even to Scripture? The conclusion to be drawn from the preceding chapters is that we cannot.' (p. 212) --`We are committed to Christ, and we live by faith in him. As we grow in theknowledge of him, we explore more and more deeply the truth as truth is inhim. In our exploration we are assisted by many witnesses, not one of which either alone or in concert with the rest relieves us of the re sponsibility of thinking and deciding for ourselves. But we go forward in the same faith as that in which we started the journey, surely trusting, because we believe that Christ holds the meaning of all life, that,if not to us one earth,at least to the Church after us, will be granted unity in the truth.
