During the twentieth century the Church of England periodically established a doctrine commission to report on an important theological question. The first commission "was appointed in 1922 and reported in 1938".〔Sykes, S. "Foreword" in ''Contemporary Doctrine Classics'' (Church House Publishing, 2005): xv.〕 In early years the commissions appear to have been appointed solely by the Archbishops of Canterbury and York. In recent years the doctrine commission was constituted as a sub-commission of the General Synod.〔Sykes, "Foreword", xv.〕 However, the members of the doctrine commission continued to be nominated by the Archbishops.〔Sykes, "Foreword", xv.〕 In the early 1980s the House of Bishops took a greater interest in the work of the doctrine commission and the report ''We Believe in God'' (1987) was published "under its authority".〔Archbishop Runcie prefatory comment reprinted in ''Contemporary Doctrine Classics'' (Church House Publishing, 2005): 2.〕 This practice continued for the next three reports. After the completion of ''Being Human'' (2002) no further doctrine commission was nominated. In 2010 General Synod established a new permanent Faith and Order Commission of the General Synod which took over responsibility for producing theological reports for the House of Bishops.〔General Synod Paper (GS 1782 ) (Summer 2010)〕 == Doctrine Commission Reports == * ''Being Human'' (2002) * ''The Mystery of Salvation'' (1995) * ''We Believe in the Holy Spirit'' (1989) * ''We Believe in God'' (1985) * ''Christian Believing'' (1976) * ''Prayer and the Departed'' (1971) * ''Subscription and Assent to the Thirty-Nine Articles'' (1968) * ''Doctrine in the Church of England'' (1938) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Doctrine Commission (Church of England)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
