Description: Documents of the Christian Church SECOND EDITION Softcover book Selected and Edited by Henry Bettenson OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS First Published (in the World's Classics) 1943 Second edition, 1963 Selection © Oxford University Press 1963 " An indispensable source book, "Bettenson, Documents " has won for itself a world-wide reputation since its first publication in 1943. It is also fascinating reading, containing " the hard facts of many disputed questions, the ammunition for controversy, the corrective to loose thinking and idle speech." The second edition has been enlarged to include Christian history through the beginning of the Ecumenical Movement. The book now spans the period of the Fathers, the Church in the Roman Empire, the Creeds, Scholasticism, the Reformation, the Churches in Great Britain, and Roman Catholic pronouncements up to the eve of the Second Vatican Council. Documents are also included on the Church of South India and the meetings of the Council of Churches in 1947 and 1961.
