The book illustrates its thesis with tough-minded examples from the Church's life and thought, ranging from more abstract problems like the theoretical role of historical criticism to such painfully concrete issues as the commandment of Jesus to forgive unforgivable wrongs. 606 $aTheology, Doctrinal$xHistory 615 0$aTheology, Doctrinal$xHistory. 676 $a230.09 700 $aSteinmetz$b David Curtis$0205786 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826540003321 996 $aTaking the long view$93915206 997 $aUNINA
