Flesh of the Church, Flesh of Christ: At the Source of the Ecclesiology of Communion (Pueblo Books)
by Jean-Marie-Roger Tillard
Category: Religion

Renowned scholar J.-M. R. Tillard defines what the flesh of the Church is for the New Testament and the period of the undivided Church. He enables readers to understand not the structure of God's Church but the living reality of grace for which this structure exists. He explains that the "flesh of the church" is communion of life for humanity reconciled with the Father and with itself "in Christ".
