Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Churches of the Federal Council: Their History, Organization and Distinctive Characteristics and a Statement of the Federal Council This volume has been prepared in response to a large and increasing demand for such information as it contains in brief and simple form. The federation of thirty Christian denominations naturally raises the inquiry as to their points of likeness and diversity. Such a volume necessitated composite authorship, because each denomination should be portrayed by one of its own representatives, with freedom of expression in setting forth the values of each. It also appears that in each of the statements contained herein certain distinct characteristics are set forth which, as a matter of fact, are found to be more or less common to other denominations. The prevailing sense in all is that of a unity far greater than the diversity, and thus we find in these statements themselves an exhibit of the need and practicability of the federation of these bodies for the multitude of tasks which can be done better by cooperation than in separation. Each chapter, again, sets forth, as a more or less distinct trait of the denomination described, the desire to realize the Kingdom of God rather than to build up a denomination, and while each emphasizes the peculiar contributions of the denomination described, these thirty sketches constitute a more or less sustained argument for cooperation. One can see clearly the possible adjustment of autonomy and corporate action, individuality and social solidarity, liberty and social adaptation.
