Publisher's Synopsis
True Limits of Ritual in the Church is a book written by Robert Linklater in 1899. The book explores the role of ritual in the Christian church and examines its limitations. Linklater argues that while ritual can be a powerful tool for expressing religious beliefs and connecting with the divine, it should not be seen as a substitute for true faith or spiritual growth. He also discusses the dangers of excessive focus on ritual, which can lead to a superficial understanding of religion and a lack of personal engagement with God. The book draws on a range of theological and philosophical perspectives to explore these issues, and offers insights into how churches can strike a balance between tradition and innovation in their worship practices. Overall, True Limits of Ritual in the Church is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the place of ritual in Christian worship.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
