Description
Book SynopsisThe Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification
Trade ReviewAnyone interested in this critical ecumenical development will consider this volume a vital addition to the library.Religious Studies Review
The volume is quite general and accessible, and provides a valuable overview to ecumenism that often branches into areas well beyond that of the doctrine of justification. As such, it is a valuable companion piece to ecumenical research, and an informative analysis of the original documents.
Catholic Books ReviewOf special interest is the essay on the Eastern Orthodox perspective on justification, which views 'being saved' as an ongoing growth in the spirit rather than a once-for-all personal experience.
Christian History Institute"I hope that throughout this year members of all traditions within the Christian family will study the results of the decades of dialogue between the churches of the Western tradition and a good place to begin is with this book."John E. Hugus, APC,
