A roman catholic Assessment of the Church: Towards a Common Vision (2013) by the World Council of Churches' Commission on Faith and Order

Summary/Abstract: In the article the author present the fruits of the work of the Faith & Order commission from a Roman Catholic perspective, in dialogue with important Vatican II documents related to the nature and the mission of the Church. The 1991 official response of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith to the Final Report of ARCIC I, despite arriving ten years late, gave the impression to compare the theological ideas of ARCIC more with the formulations than with the content of Catholic faith. By laying bare the many points of contact between CTCV and Catholic ecclesiology we hope to encourage many Catholic theologians and interested believers to be enriched by reading the actual document. The article reconstructs the impact which the unpublished 2008 reaction by the PCPCU on The Nature and Mission of the Church (2005) has had on The Church: Towards a Common Vision (2013). With regard to the chapter on which it is notoriously difficult to realize ecumenical progress at multilateral level, ‘The Church: growing in communion’, the PCPCU has made the least suggestions for improvement. In turn, the drafters of the final document preferred not to try to achieve a differentiated consensus on difficult issues as the efficacious nature of baptism and the nature of the Eucharistas sacrifice. As a result, the task list for future dialogue remains long and apparently we have no other choice than being satisfied when small progress is made regarding one or more “elements” on the way to full visible unity.
