Koinonia in Bilateral Dialogues
Koinonia in Bilateral Dialogues

Summary/Abstract: The present study gives an outline on how bilateral dialogues have used the notion of koinonia in relation to ecclesiology with a view to full visible Eucharistic fellowship. It is not so much an inquiry on the relation between modern communion ecclesiology, on the one hand, and scriptural and patristic visions of ecclesial unity, on the other. However, this comparison remains an important factor in the development of the present study. Its main purpose is to see which were the starting points and the conclusions of the bilateral dialogues in relation to koinonia and how close have churches come in the process of building consensus around the notion.
