- "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.

- "Edited by Dr. Percy Dearmer, Canon of Westminster".
- "The issue, indeed, is simple. The motives and methods of human life are not sufficiently moralised: it was to moralise the machinery of production, to limit the power of selfishness, that Wilberforce and Shaftesbury were working a century ago; and the whole world now enjoys what Christians then won: but in many ways industry and business, and family life, and civic and political activity, need further moralisation. Money -- the necessary use of tokens of exchange -- has been overlooked in its moral aspect (in spite of what Christ said about it) .... And, alas, there was one aspect of human life which was not understood a hundred years ago; and to this our present miseries are mainly due. The very word 'international' had then only just been coined by Jeremy Bentham. The whole conception of moralising international relations was in its infancy. So the world went on to its doom. So, because the nations and their representatives have not yet learnt the elements of international behaviour, we stand at this moment of writing on the brink of irretrievable disaster. It is in a very real sense true that only Christ can save the world from ruin to-day. Are we prepared to let his spirit save the nations from themselves ?" -- Preface, p. 10-11.

- "This book is about what the church is to be and the jobs it has to do in a changing world and in cultures they delight in being 'postmodern' and 'post-Christian'. ... The church is concerned with specific (and sometimes quite small) local communities, but also, on a larger scale, with government plans for urban or rural regeneration and the implications for pastoral care and mission of these plans. Both ends of our concern receive attention here. .... Finally, I have tried to write about controversial matters that have divided Christians in the past, in such a way as to transcend past divisions and to approach the issues with fresh eyes and an open mind, relying on recent scholarship to do this." -- Pp. 11, 12.

- "First published in 1948". -- verso of t.-p.
- "Seven of these addresses were given at different centres to the clergy and churchwardens of the diocese of York on the occasion of my primary visitation; the eighth was given in almost identical terms at four large meetings of the laity as 'a call to loyalty to Christ and His Church'. .... Through all these charges there run four convictions -- firstly, we are living in one of the great crises of human history; our days are revolutionary, the old order is passing away, and a new age has not yet come to the birth. Secondly, that Christianity is now a minority religion; it no longer dominates the Western World; the power it once had of imposing its teaching on states and communities has long vanished; so it must persuade and influence through its message and its life. Thirdly, though the Church is in a minority, it possesses a supernatural Gospel and life; the world will only listen to it if it can give this message and offer power not from man but from God. Fourthly, that it only this supernatural Gospel which will enable us to overcome the forces of evil which now threaten mankind with destruction, and give us the true solution to the problems which are now proving so baffling and perplexing". -- Intro.
