Publisher's Synopsis
"Studies in Christianity," by A. Clutton-Brock, is made up of five illuminating essays on "Christianity and Absolute Values," "The Christian Doctrine of Love," "Christ and the Christian," "The Grace of God" and "The Future of Christianity." They represent the positive beliefs of an independent Christian in an endeavor to differentiate the permanent factors from the passing ones and to lay stress on the fundamental truths which Christ taught, not as his own, but as the word of God. "Only those," says the author, "at whose minds truth has never knocked, or who have never recognized the knocking, suppose that they can express the truth perfectly, or that any past expression of it is perfect." Again he says: "The churches, when they think, are not taken seriously, because they think officially, because they seem to be tied by the leg to certain dogmas however long their tether may be."
