Saints, Angelology & Demonology, Religion & Spirituality 

"From 1983 to 1990 the Lutheran/Roman Catholic dialogue in the United States of America discussed the topic 'The One Mediator, the Saints, and Mary.' This, the eighth round of theological dialogue, has tested the doctrinal implications of the fundamental affirmation and material convergences of the seventh round, the topic of which was 'Justification by Faith'. . . . In testing the rule contained in the common christological affirmation of the seventh round, the dialogue has made an earnest search for further areas of convergence. . . ." "We now submit this document to the authorities, theologians, pastors, and people of our supporting churches for their reflection and judgment. We await their reaction to our findings and recommendations toward unity." -from the Preface by J. Francis Stafford and H. George Anderson J. Francis Stafford is the archbishop of Denver and the Catholic Co-chairman of the dialogue. H. George Anderson is the president of Luther College, Decorah, Iowa, and served as the Lutheran Co-chairman of the eighth round of the dialogue. Joseph A. Burgess is a Lutheran member of the dialogue. - from Amzon
