About the Book
There has long been a call for a definitive statement of
the theology of the Church, and of the church of the Nazarene in particular. The
distinctives of our doctrine and polity have needed to be enunciated. Our
mission in the world, our reason for being, and our position in the mainstream
of the Church of Jesus Christ have needed to be defined, particularly in the
light of the modern ecumenical movement.
This became a
major topic for discussion at the Nazarene Theology Conference held in Kansas
City, August 27-29, 1967, and the basic paper on the subject was prepared by Dr.
Ross E. Price, H. Orton Wiley professor at Pasadena College, Pasadena,
California. His presentation won high praise, and the Book Committee felt that
its very significant message needed broad distribution. Hence its appearance
here in book form. It merits careful reading by every minister and thoughtful
layman in the church.
