Authority Of Doctrinal Decisions Which Are Not Definitions Of Faith

""The Authority of Doctrinal Decisions Which Are Not Definitions of Faith"" is a collection of essays written by William George Ward, originally published in the Dublin Review in 1866. The book explores the question of the authority of non-definitive doctrinal decisions in the Catholic Church. Ward argues that while these decisions are not considered infallible, they still hold significant weight in the Church's teaching and should be respected by the faithful. The essays offer a thoughtful and nuanced perspective on this important theological issue, drawing on Ward's deep knowledge of Catholic doctrine and his extensive experience as a theologian and scholar. This book will be of interest to anyone interested in the history and development of Catholic theology, as well as those seeking a deeper understanding of the Church's teachings on authority and doctrine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
