Edmund Schlink (3 March 1903 – 20 May 1984) was a leading German Lutheran theologian in the modern ecumenical movement, especially in the World Council of Churches. An influential teacher, pastor (since 1932), and professor (1946-1971), he was also a leading participant in several official ecumenical dialogues for more than forty years. The author of a weighty dogmatics text, five additional important books, and numerous essays, sermons, and addresses, this second-generation "ecumenical pioneer of the 20th Century" (Gassmann) was the central systematic-historical theologian at Heidelberg University between 1946 and his death in 1984. ==Books in English== * ''The Victor Speaks,'' English 1958, a collection of wartime Lenten sermons; * ''Theology of the Lutheran Confessions,'' English 1961, reprinted six times; * ''The Coming Christ and the Coming Church,'' English 1967, an anthology of key articles related to his work in the World Council of Churches; * ''After the Council,'' English 1968, reflections on the Second Vatican Council as an official observer; * ''The Doctrine of Baptism,'' English 1972, based on a historical-critical reading of the New Testament texts, it examines the doctrine as held by all churches. * ''The Vision of the Pope'', English 2001 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「Edmund Schlink」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
