SrMaryLea | Aug 22, 2023 |  Father McKenzie's thesis is that these political paradigms simply do not apply to the Church. The Christian community, he points out, is a unique society, and hence its understanding and use of authority must also be unique. McKenzie shows how Christian authority is unique by illuminating the understanding of authority that Jesus gave to the "society" which He founded. After a brilliant exposition of authority in the New Testament, the author traces how the Church has lost sight of these unique aspects, with a consequent erosion of both Christian authority and Christian freedom. « Less StFrancisofAssisi | Jul 11, 2019 |  StFrancisofAssisi | Jul 20, 2015 | nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
