John C. Nugent 
The Fourfold Office of Christ [EPUB ebook] 
A New Typology for Relating Church and World

支持

How should the church relate to the world?
For over seven decades, the classic categories of Christ and Culture have monopolized Christian answers to this question. Nearly everyone bought into H. Richard Niebuhr’s lofty, world-transforming vision. And now that everyone’s trying to make the world better, we keep clashing about how to do so.
We all want God’s will to be done on earth as in heaven, but deep disagreements about how to get there keep fracturing Christ’s body and subverting our testimony. Jesus was right: our witness to the world depends on our unity and our love for one another. In recent years, we’ve been failing at both. Political partisanship and constant infighting have wounded the vulnerable and driven countless people from the pews.
It’s time to revisit church-world relations with fresh eyes and a stubborn commitment to God’s revelation in Scripture. Offering a new typology for the twenty-first century, The Fourfold Office of Christ lucidly examines the most common ways of relating church and world. John C. Nugent employs the memorable categories of prophet, priest, king, and servant to showcase the strengths and weaknesses of various approaches. He then charts a rigorously scriptural and surprisingly hopeful path forward.
