Brunner sees St Paul's Epistle to the Romans as 'the chapter of
destiny of the Christian Church'. Here, in Luther's words, is the
'purest gospel' upon which the very existence of the Christian
faith depends and from which it draws its life. Concentrated,
decisive and instructive, nothing within the New Testament is more
closely argued both theological and personal. Out of his years of
scholarly wisdom Brunner meditates on the great Question: What is
wrong with the Churches' Brunner finds an answer in the contrast
between the virile Spirit-filled fellowship of the New Testament
and the institutions which are now called 'churches'. He writes in
his preface: "The title of the book, The Misunderstanding of the
Church, is equivocal. Is it a question of a misunderstanding of
which the Church is guilty, or of a misunderstanding of which it is
the victim' Or is it that the Church itself, as such, is perhaps
the product of a misunderstanding' The author is not responsible
for this ambiguity; it is intrinsic in the theme itself."
