Christian Law: Contemporary Principles offers a detailed comparison
of the laws of churches across ten distinct Christian traditions
worldwide: Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican, Lutheran, Methodist,
Reformed, Presbyterian, United, Congregational and Baptist. From
this comparison, Professor Doe proposes that all denominations of
the faith share common principles in spite of their doctrinal
divisions; and that these principles reveal a concept of 'Christian
law' and contribute to a theological understanding of global
Christian identity. Adopting a unique interdisciplinary approach,
the book provides comprehensive coverage on the sources and
purposes of church law, the faithful (lay and ordained), the
institutions of church governance, discipline and dispute
resolution, doctrine and worship, the rites of passage, ecumenism,
property and finance, as well as church, State and society. This is
an invaluable resource for lawyers and theologians who are engaged
in ecumenical and interfaith dialogue, showing how dogmas may
divide but laws link Christians across traditions.
