The theology of the company, or Koinonia, was at the center of the ecumenical movement for more than thirty years. It is essential to understand the Anglican churches, the Catholic Church and the Orthodox, and was prominent in the work of the World Council of Churches.
This book, based on the lectures of Hulsean 1996, addresses the importance of Koinonia to contemporary ecumenical theology, and follows the development of contemporary understanding in critical dealing with the ideas of Plato and Aristotle and the Hebrew and New Testament writings and the Cappadocian and Augustine Fathers. In each case, thinking about community life is related to the actual communities in which the texts were produced.
The importance of conflict and the place of politics of Konya that form Christian churches is a major theme throughout. The Communists are seen as a gift to be received, and discipline is enshrined in the continuing practice of universality..
