Mystery of the Church presents a global picture of the main themes
of current ecclesiology. First, it deals with the institution of
the Church and her essential nature. Subsequently the four
hallmarks of the Church are described. Her unity and holiness are
guaranteed by the sanctity of Christ her Head despite the
sinfulness of her members. The catholicity of the Church is also
examined from the perspective of Eastern Christendom. The
apostolicity of the Church leads to a description of the Petrine
Office. The Church is seen as the instrument of salvation, and her
relationship with the State and with science is investigated.
Finally the Church is pictured as leading to the Kingdom of God.
This is the fifth volume of Fr Paul Haffner's systematic exposition

theology at Regina Apostolorum University in Rome, visiting

lecturer at Duquesne University Roman Campus.
