�n Beraad te midde van berade: Die historiese konteks van die Cottesloe-Kerkeberaad herbeoordeel

Abstract

<strong>A consultation amongst consultations: The historical context of the Cottesloe Church Consultation reconsidered</strong><br /> At the time of writing it happens to be thirty years since the well known Cottesloe Church Consultation took place. On the other hand the November 1990 consultation of a wide variety of South African churches appears strongly in the focal point. In this article the socio-political, ecclesiastical and theological context of the Cottesloe Consultation is reconsidered. Finally some conclusions are drawn as regards the relevance of the Cottesloe Consultation for our times.
