This well-preserved copy of Roy E. Cogdill’s “New Testament Church” offers a fascinating glimpse into the theological debates and spiritual movements that shaped the Church of Christ in the 20th century. Cogdill, a prominent minister and author within the conservative wing of the Restoration Movement, presents a staunch defense of the traditional interpretation of the New Testament’s teachings on church organization, worship practices, and doctrinal matters. His work reflects the ongoing tensions between progressive and traditionalist factions within the Churches of Christ, as well as the broader currents of religious thought in mid-20th century America. Despite its age, this 21st edition remains a valuable resource for scholars and collectors interested in the history of the Restoration Movement, as well as the evolution of biblical interpretation and ecclesiology within Protestant Christianity.
