Unity, yes, but with whom? How far and at what cost?
“That they may all be one” (John 17:21). Jesus' last prayer concerns Christian unity. The apostles made it their priority. Despite everything, divisions in the Church have exhausted its strength and weakened the witness of the Gospel to the world.
Jesus' prayer concerns us all, but how can we put unity into practice? Through a rigorous study of the Bible and History, Alfred Kuen answers the following questions:
- How do the Lord and the apostles view unity?
- How can we promote unity in the local church?
- How has unity been attacked over the centuries?
- Should we engage in ecumenical rapprochement efforts?
- What is the purpose of these interreligious dialogues?
- Will syncretism end up uniting all religions?
“Let us be grateful to the indefatigable Alfred Kuen for having written a well-argued work on the subject. At a time when the National Council of Evangelicals of France is taking its first steps, this revised and expanded reissue is particularly timely. »
