In this pivotal text, St. John Henry Newman challenges the Protestant claim that many Catholic doctrines are deviations from Scripture, expounding a theory of development of revelation guided by the Holy Spirit. Allowing for organic growth while condemning any progressivist corruption of doctrine, Newman tackles head-on a heated theological debate with eloquence and wisdom, concluding ultimately that such authentic development can take place only within the infallible Church established by Jesus Christ himself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSt. John Henry Newman (1801-1890) was an English theologian, leader of the Oxford Movement, and convert to Catholicism.
