The Church of God in Jesus Christ consists of three parts: the
first provides a concise historical survey of ecclesiology
elucidating the most salient teachings and insights from the Old
and New Testaments, the writings of the fathers, the medievals,
moderns, up to the present day. It integrates a standard historical
overview with a recovery of oft ignored or forgotten insights from
the tradition (e.g., beginnings of the Church in prehistoric times
and in Israel, Irenaeus's Trinitarian ecclesiology and St.
Bernard's nuptial vison of the Church. The second part is a
systematic ecclesiology ordered around the four marks of the
Church, then proceeding to treat the participation of all the
faithful in the threefold office of Christ, the ongoing renewal and
reform of the Church by the Holy Spirit working through her
members, and finishing with a hitherto neglected study of the
eschatological consummation of the Church in heavenly glory. The
third part consists of five essays on particular themes of special
importance in ecclesiology. Of the five, most notable is the
chapter on the relationship between the Church's infallibility and
Mary. Fr. Roch Kereszty intends to integrate theological insights
with nourishing the reader's spiritual life by emphasizing the
essentially Trinitarian, nuptial and Marian dimensions of the
Church. The book fills a genuine need in that it offers a rich
synthesis of the ecclesiological renewal in an accessible and clear
language. It will enrich not only students of theology but all
those college educated adults who are interested to delve beyond
the cliches of the media into the contemplation of the manifold
mystery of the Church.
