Description
Résumé:For some years a Committee of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church of Australia has been at work preparing a statement on ‘The Nature and Functions of the Ministry’. Those portions of its statement which deal with the New Testament and Reformation bases for the Presbyterian conception of the Ministry were given general approval by the 1959 Assembly (Min. 131.2), and are being considered by Presbyteries. The Assembly has instructed the Committee meanwhile to prepare statements on certain other aspects of the subject, including ‘the non-theological factors that are influencing the conception of the Ministry in the changed place of the Church in the modern community’ (Min. 131.3). This paper (which owes something to work already done on behalf of this Committee) is intended as a contribution to thought concerning these ‘non-theological factors’.
