Description: James Bannerman's 'The Church of Christ' is one of the key historic texts of the doctrine of the church. Few will agree with everything the author has to say, but as Carl Trueman states in his foreword, 'the great thing about the book is that it will stimulate the reader to reflect on the nature of the church in a profoundly biblical and historically sensitive way'.
Review Quotes: I am thrilled to see this classic work on Presbyterian polity being reissued. And if you think "thrilled" and "Presbyterian polity" don't belong in the same sentence, that's just one more reason we need Bannerman's book. In a day where the doctrine of the church is often thought obscure, irrelevant, and even divisive, Bannerman reminds us just how much our forefathers thought about this topic and just how much the Bible has to say on these issues. This big book on the nature and order of the church is more helpful, more contemporary, and more important than you might think. -- Kevin DeYoung "https://banneroftruth.org/us/store/theology/church-christ/"
