520			_aThe author of the classic Models of the Church here explores Christianity's central doctrine: that Christianity is based on the word of God as given to the church. Using a similar structure to his earlier book, Dulles first derives and compares five models of revelation-as doctrine, as history, as inner experience, as dialectical presence, and as new awareness. He then goes on to explore the meaning and relation of these models for theology, considering symbolic mediation, Christ as the summit of revelation, the Bible, the church, and eschatology. - Back cover.
