This is a revised and up-to-date edition of an important and now even more topical work. Professor Torrance presents an ecumenical understanding of the Church and its ministry that cuts across divisions between Catholic and Evangelical, Anglican and Reformed, and includes the ministry of both men and women. He expounds the essential nature of the ordained priesthood within the corporate or royal priesthoos of the Church. The very Reverend T.F. Torrence was Prefessor of Systematic Theology at the Univeristy of Edinburgh.
