From its inception the Christian Church thought of worship and
prayer in Trinitarian terms. At the heart of this Trinitarian
concept lay the doctrine of the priesthood of Christ, which in its
liturgical expression, presented Christ not merely as the object of
prayer, but also as its mediator - prayers were directed to the
Father through Christ.;The author traces the idea of the priesthood
of Christ, and its effects on Christian worship and prayer, to its
origins with the earliest Christians and through the Arian and
Apollinarian debates. He then focuses on the Reformed tradition,
and the influences of John Calvin, John Knox, John Craig, John
McLeod Campbell, William Milligan, Theodore Beza, William Perkins,
federal theology and the Westminster tradition, through to the
present day.;The book is a history of an important doctrine, but it
also shows in a remarkable way how the doctrinal struggles within
the church have been reflected in the actual worshipping life of
the church and how they continue to be reflected today.;Redding
concludes with a number of key affirmations for a reformed
understanding of prayer and also a critique of some modern
tendencies and practices in the church.
