"But why call this an age of apocalypse, as though the world is ending ? ... No the world is not about to end. Nor are the terrifying visions of the Apocalypse of St. John about to be literally fulfilled. ... No, what I mean by apocalypse in the title of these lectures is neither the end of the world nor a mere crisis, but a kairos, a decisive period of history, when the world -- and in our case our nation -- is faced with a moment of destiny; when it is about to enter a wholly new era, when it must face unprecedented issues of good and evil -- both for the planet as a whole. and for this nation in particular." -- p. 3-4.
"Of course Christians are to be involved in the world. This is what the doctrine of Incarnation is about -- God involving himself in the secular world which he has made; and Christians are in duty bound to get stuck in, to involve themselves in everyday life; in the family, in the local school or parents association, in local affairs, in their businesses, in the union or wherever it may be. We have a positive duty in all circumstances to get involved. But the word which is spoken to us is not an either or. It is not 'either' get involved 'or' be detached. It is 'both and'. We must 'both' be involved 'and' be detached. Now is the time, especially at a time of testing, to show that truly Christian combination of detachment from the world and and involvement in the world: now is the time to experience the sense of freedom and compulsion which comes from this combination." -- p. 28.
"A two-month Mission entitled 'A World in Apocalypse' has been launched in Southwark Cathedral, with a major exhibition and two separate series of lectures. The Mission opened on October 19th [1976] with three lectures by the Bishop of Kingston. What Hugh Montefiore said seemed to me so important, urgent and relevant that I determined that it must be available to a wider audience." -- Intro.

"What is the nature of Christian belief ? Is it the acceptance of a truth handed down from the past and enshrined in the Bible and the Creeds ? Or is it a free and open search for truth in the present ? When the creeds are recited in worship, is each member of the congregation meant to give complete assent to every statement they contain ? These are the sorts of questions the Doctrine Commission had in mind in preparing this report". -- back cover.

Marriage divorce and the Church : the report of a Commission appointed by the Archbishop of Canterbury to prepare a statement on the Christian doctine of Marriage
"Copyright The Registrar of the Province of Canterbury, 1971". -- verso of t.-p.
Includes bibliographical references.
"The conditions of modern life have caused both Church and State to re-examine their attitudes to marriage and divorce. On 1 January 1971 the Divorce Reform Act 1969 came into force -- an Act under which the concept of the matrimonial offence was abandoned and divorce based solely on the fact of irretrievable breakdown. The Church of England was already engaged in a reappraisal of its own attitude to marriage at the time when the new law first came up for consideration. 'Putting Asunder' (1966), the report of a Church of England group on the subject of the secular had a considerable influence on the framing of the 1969 Act. The Church's discipline with regard to the remarriage of divorced persons had come to be regarded by many as unsatisfactory, and in 1967 the Convocation of Canterbury asked for the whole subject to be examined and for a statement to be prepared on the Christian doctrine of marriage. The commission set up for this purpose by the Archbishop of Canterbury has considered past and present attitudes of the Christian Church to marriage and approaches the problem in terms of personal relationships rather than of theoretical assumptions". -- back cover.

At head of title: Lambeth Conference 1978 : preparatory articles.
"Copyright 1977 The Secretary General of the Anglican Consultative Council".
"This book of essays aims to help the Anglican bishops in their preparation for the Lambeth Conference of 1978. The Conference will engage in prayer and study, and in the sharing of experience. The main object will not be to make pronouncements, but to reflect on the gospel and ministry in which each bishop is involved, and which he shares with the whole People of God." -- Preface.
"This volume of Preparatory Articles contains 40 contributions from writers from every Continent, not all of whom are Anglicans. The essays are designed to inform and to stimulate, but not to prescribe. Each subject has been treated as the author wished. No editorial effort has been made to try and achieve uniformity of presentation. As a whole the book provides a broad canvas for subjects that the Conference will discuss, and is one that many Christians will read with enjoyment and profit". -- back cover.
