Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
Mark E. Powell's "Papal Infallibility: A Protestant Evaluation of an Ecumenical Issue" is an insightful evaluation of the ways in which four major Catholic thinkers approached the issue of the infallibility of the pope.

I was hesitant at first to read through yet another critical examination of this issue, having read through most of the major works on the topic and thoroughly burned myself out on them. However, the author brings a fresh perspective to a tired issue. He avoids the well-worn paths of his predecessors when it comes to debating the merits and faults of the concept of the pope's infallibility, preferring to stay on his own course. Obviously there are certain historical facts and lines of argument that must be briefly retread in any treatment of this subject, but you won't find all the typical historical case studies of papal teachings here. Nor will you find biblical proof-texting (which may seem somewhat inadequate, not using Scripture to make points on this issue), but really, how many more times do we need someone to quote Matthew 16:18 and like verses in an attempt to prove how much or how little they prove the primacy of Peter? If you are unfamiliar with the usual Bible verses employed in these arguments, this is not the book for you. "Papal Infallibility" is geared toward those already well-versed in this particular theological discussion.

It may be helpful to some to know where the author is coming from before reading this book. According to the back of the book, author Mark E. Powell is associate professor of theology at Harding University Graduate School of Religion, Memphis, Tennessee, and a contributor to "Canonical Theism: A Proposal for Theology and the Church.
