Roman Catholics and Evangelicals: Agreements Differences

Bol

This comparative study shows that Protestants and Catholics are not as separated theologically as they may think. An excellent reference tool or textbook. "Norman Geisler and Ralph MacKenzie have rendered a valuable service in examining the issues that unite and separate Roman Catholics and evangelicals. It is imperative that we understand what joins and divides us in order that we might make common defense of truth in the world while there is time, or perhaps I should say, if there is time." -- Chuck Colson, evangelical"It is important for us to understand the foundational things that we have in common, as well as to identify the irreducible difficulties that remain. Geisler and MacKenzie have undertaken the monumental task of showing us how to do this." -- Harold O. J. Brown, evangelical"I hope Catholics and evangelicals will read this book together, with the Catechism of the Catholic Church at hand for ready reference. Out of such prayerful study and honest argument will come, God willing, greater shared insight into the nature and mission of Christ and his church." -- Richard John Neuhaus, Roman Catholic"The virtue of this book is clarity. It cuts through the fog of confusion and uncertainty like a searchlight. The real issues in Protestant/Catholic debate are laid bare with fairness and forthrightness. A book of this kind has long been needed." -- David Wells, evangelical"This book goes far towards resolving apparent differences between the two faiths, while at the same time revealing the great distance which in some ways still separates them." -- James Hitchcock, Roman Catholic"This book offers a comprehensive and balanced discussion and should retire older, sensationalistic works." -- James Akin, Roman Catholic"Those who think that these evangelical authors are too accepting of Roman Catholic traditions--as well as those who think they are too critical--will both grasp essential issues better for having followed the authors through their careful reasoning." -- Mark Noll, evangelical Protestants and Catholics are not as separated theologically as they may think. In Roman Catholics and Evangelicals, Norman L. Geisler examines the common spiritual roots between Catholics and Protestants and the theological and moral bridges upon which they can both travel. He explores similarities and differences in both doctrine and practice. He also speaks to interesting relationships and alliances that have developed between Catholics and Protestants. This book is an excellent reference tool and textbook.
