Ecumenism-Boon or Bane? II. Part

Bert B. Beach ; General Conference of SDA, Washington D.C.

Sažetak

Well qualified both as an historian and a firsthand observer and participant in various activities of the present-day "ecumenical movement," B. B. Beach, an observer at the Vatican II., traverses with ease and accuracy both the historical backgrounds and the current issues. The author's familiarity with historical antecedents and with current trends in many parts of the world enable him to illustrate in an interesting, helpful, and authoritative way the various points that he makes. He indicates with fairness modern ecumenism's strengths and contributions, but also unflinchingly calls attention to its vulnerable points and weaknesses. And it is notable that throughout his discussion he repeatedly calls attention to the biblical perspective in relationship to the various issues with which he deals.
