The Gate of Glory

The Most Rev Dr George Carey writes to redress two alarming trends. The first is the low priority of the Cross in modern thinking, the second is the multiplication of interpretations of the Cross in an ecumenical age. The author points to the common ground represented by the Cross to correct unnecessary division and controversy among Christian people. "The Gate of Glory" strongly contends that to lose the Cross is to lose everything. To shift it to the circumference of faith is to water down the Christian gospel and render it ineffective. The author is a former principal of Trinity College and is Archbishop of Canterbury from January 1991.
