Biblical studies have also made an important contribution toward
ecumenical agreement by offering a fresh examination of old impasses.
The following facts support this belief: the participation of the churches in the theological conversations of the
ecumenical movement, which perforce have had to find their common starting point and common vocabulary in
biblical literature and theology; the growing body of specifically
biblical theology, produced by the very vitality of fragmentary and monographic
studies.

study as the social gospel, social ethics, religious education, psychological counseling and
ecumenical relations may receive much publicity the schools seem to go on their accustomed way, teaching what they have always taught:
Biblical and systematic theology, church history and preaching.
