Description
""The Ministry of Grace: Studies in Early Church History with Reference to Present Problems"" is a book written by John Wordsworth and published in 1901. The book is a collection of essays that explore the history of the early Christian Church and its ministry. The author examines various aspects of the Church's development, including the role of bishops, the sacraments, and the relationship between the Church and the state. Wordsworth's work is particularly relevant to contemporary debates about the Church's role in society, as he draws on historical examples to shed light on present-day issues. The book is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the Church's history. In the first section, Wordsworth examines the development of the episcopacy, or the system of government by bishops, in the early Church. He argues that this system was not imposed from above, but rather emerged organically as a way of preserving the Church's unity and authority. In the second section, the author explores the sacraments of baptism and the Eucharist, examining their origins and development in the early Church. He argues that these sacraments are central to the Church's mission and identity, and that they continue to be relevant today. The third section of the book focuses on the relationship between the Church and the state, particularly in the early Christian era. Wordsworth argues that the Church was not simply a passive recipient of state power, but rather played an active role in shaping the political and social structures of its time. Overall, ""The Ministry of Grace"" is a thoughtful and engaging exploration of the early Christian Church and its relevance to contemporary issues. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it a valuable resource for scholars and lay readers alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
