| Résumé : |
Jesus Christ did not establish denominations but a church, observes John Frame. The unity of that one church is organizational as well as spiritual. Frame leaves his usual role as a leading evangelical theologian to issue a prophetic call against the prevailing sectarianism among Christians. He admits that total organizational union among Christians is not now practical, but he sees many reasons why there should be unity among evangelicals and union of Bible-believing groups who hold similar convictions and traditions.
The trend to build barriers between Christians can be reversed, insists Frame; Jesus came to tear down those barriers. This book offers guidelines to work for a spirit that takes seriously the one mission in the one church: to advance Christ’s one kingdom. |
