As leader of the Oxford Movement, John Henry Newman (1801–90) was a controversial religious figure. Addressing salvation through faith, obedience, righteousness, Christ's resurrection, and the role of rites and works as well as preaching, these lectures, published in 1838, record Newman's journey towards becoming a Roman Catholic in 1845.
One of the leading Christian theologians of the nineteenth century, John Henry Newman (1801–90) was already a famous and controversial figure, as the leader of the Oxford Movement, by the time he published these lectures in 1838. He was still a Church of England vicar, but in 1845 he would join the Roman Catholic Church and eventually become a cardinal. The thirteen lectures here, addressing the doctrine of salvation through faith, cover issues of obedience, righteousness, Christ's resurrection, faith as the sole source of justification, the role of rites and works, and that of preaching. Offering a complementary rather than dichotomous interpretation of the competing theological positions, this work reveals the progress of Newman's thinking and reflects his journey towards leaving the Church of England.
