Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

""Congregational Church Polity: Being The First Two Books Of A Manual Of Congregational Principles"" is a book written by Robert William Dale in 1885. The book is a comprehensive guide to the principles and practices of Congregationalism, a form of Protestant Christianity that emphasizes the autonomy of each individual church congregation. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the history and principles of Congregationalism, while the second part delves into the practical aspects of church governance and administration. Dale provides a detailed explanation of the role of the pastor, the deacons, and the congregation in the decision-making process of the church. Additionally, the book explores the relationship between the individual church and the larger community of churches, as well as the importance of maintaining the purity of the church and its teachings. Dale also addresses the issue of church discipline and the procedures for dealing with members who violate the church's standards. Overall, ""Congregational Church Polity"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the principles and practices of Congregationalism, as well as for those involved in the administration and governance of local churches.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
