Book synopsis

From 1824 to 1843 Newman was an active clergyman of the Church of England; during this time, he entered the pulpit about 1270 times. Newman published 217 of the sermons which he wrote during these years; a further 246 sermons survive in manuscript in the Archives of the Birmingham Oratory, some only as fragments but the majority as full texts. The aim of this series is to transcribe the sermon accurately, with sufficient editorial apparatus for the theological development within them to be understood, and their historical situation to be clear. The 43 sermons contained in Volume 1 reveal Newman's attitude to his pastoral charge, his theology of liturgy based on the Book of Common Prayer; his gradual acceptance of the doctrine of baptismal regeneration as a substitute for his earlier belief in conversion as understood by the Evangelicals; the eventual supremacy of the Eucharist in his own spiritual life; his growing reserve about preaching on the Atonement; his faith in the divinity of Christ the Mediator; and finally, his understanding of the Church as the remedial and mediatorial kingdom of Christ on Earth.
