To some Western evangelicals, the practices of Eastern Orthodoxy
seem mysterious and perhaps even unbiblical. Then again, from an
Orthodox perspective, evangelicals lack the spiritual roots
provided by centuries-old church traditions. Are the differences
between these two branches of Christianity so sharp that to shake
hands is to compromise the gospel itself? Or is there room for
agreement? Are Eastern Orthodoxy and evangelicalism at all
compatible? Yes, no, maybe---this book allows five leading
authorities to present their different views, have them critiqued
by their fellow authors, and respond to the critiques. Writing from
an Orthodox perspective with a strong appreciation for
evangelicalism, Bradley Nassif makes a case for compatibility.
Michael Horton and Vladimir Berzonsky take the opposite stance from
their respective evangelical and Orthodox backgrounds. And George
Hancock-Stefan (evangelical) and Edward Rommen (Orthodox) each
offer a qualified perhaps. The interactive Counterpoints forum is
ideal for comparing and contrasting the different positions to
understand the strengths and weaknesses of these two important
branches of Christianity and to form a personal conclusion
regarding their compatibility. The Counterpoints series provides a
forum for comparison and critique of different views on issues
important to Christians. Counterpoints books address two
categories: Church Life and Bible and Theology. Complete your
library with other books in the Counterpoints series."
