Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Protestant Popery: Or Lessons For The Times is a book written by Henry Christopherson in 1850. The book is a critique of the Anglican Church and its perceived similarities to the Roman Catholic Church. The author argues that the Anglican Church has adopted many of the practices and beliefs of the Catholic Church, thus making it a form of ""Protestant Popery."" The book is divided into chapters that explore different aspects of the Anglican Church and its relationship to Catholicism. Christopherson discusses the use of vestments, the role of bishops, the use of incense, and the doctrine of apostolic succession. He argues that these practices and beliefs are not in line with Protestant theology and are evidence of the Anglican Church's move towards Catholicism. Throughout the book, Christopherson also critiques the political and social influence of the Anglican Church. He argues that the Church has become too closely aligned with the British government and that this has compromised its ability to truly serve the needs of its members. Protestant Popery: Or Lessons For The Times is an important historical document that sheds light on the religious and political climate of 19th century England. It is a thought-provoking read for anyone interested in the history of the Anglican Church and its relationship to Catholicism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
