Abstract

ABSTRACT This article sets forth a Protestant response to three key aspects of the Holy and Great Council’s “Relations of the Orthodox Church with the Rest of the Christian World” and related statements: (1) the Council’s understanding of ecumenical relations, (2) its vision of God’s transfiguration of all reality, and (3) the relation between theological reflection and church practice. The article concludes that Protestants will learn from the Council’s vision of world transfiguration, even as they disagree with some of the ecclesiological implications that the Council draws from this vision.
