Résumé : | Hans Küng has remarked that the Protestant churches need to give serious attention to reform, just as the Catholic church is already doing. In this book Donald Bloesch points the way toward much needed reforms within Protestantism, showing how Catholic thinking in this area can be of aid to Protestants. He sounds the call for sacramental and spiritual renewal within the church today, and gives a fresh interpretation of the sacraments of baptism and the Lord's Supper. He also discusses such rites as confession and confirmation, as well as spiritual healing and other charismatic gifts. The book concludes with a call to Christian, unity based upon the Gospel of free grace declared in Holy Scripture. The Reform of the Church is both evangelical and ecumenical, and can be recommended to anyone who is earnestly seeking the renewal of the church in our time. |
