The Old Faith Restated

What are the beliefs which founded the American Restoration (Stone-Campbell) Movement? What led several prominent men to leave their denominational roots and embrace the call for the union of all Christians into a purer, simpler faith? This book contains a series of articles which address this advocation for reformation. In addition to the call for Christian union, this volume also addresses the theological positions of prominent advocates within the Stone-Campbell Movement. From the conservative viewpoints of J. W.

Tyler, this book demonstrates the variety of beliefs held by the Disciples of Christ, and provides students of our movement with a greater understanding of the history and difficulties of our plea for the universal union of all Christians under the simple profession, "Where the Bible speaks, we speak, and where the Bible is silent, we are silent."
