Summary: | The Stone-Campbell Movement's efforts toward Christian unity has proven susceptible to division, sometimes creating despair as to how true unity might be achieved in a fractured world. The Christian tradition provides an answer for this question in the work of Cyril of Alexandria, the fifth-century patristic writer. In his commentary on John's Gospel, Cyril builds on the ideas of his predecessors in order to argue powerfully and compellingly that the Holy Spirit has a role to play in unifying divided Christians. |
