Of Sacraments and Sacrifice

Of Sacraments and Sacrifice is a theological treatise by Clifford Howell that explores the relationship between sacraments and sacrifice in Christian worship. The book argues that sacraments are a form of sacrifice that allow believers to participate in the divine life of Christ. The author draws on biblical and historical sources to support his argument, and also engages with contemporary debates in theology and liturgy. The book is divided into four parts, each of which explores a different aspect of the sacramental life of the Church. Part One examines the biblical foundations of sacraments and sacrifice, while Part Two explores the role of sacraments in the early Church. Part Three focuses on the relationship between sacraments and the Eucharist, and Part Four considers the implications of sacramental theology for contemporary Christian worship. Overall, Of Sacraments and Sacrifice offers a rich and thought-provoking exploration of the sacramental life of the Church, and will be of interest to theologians, liturgists, and anyone interested in the relationship between faith and practice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
