Excerpt from Calvinism and Arminianism Compared in Their Principles and Tendency, or the Doctrines of General Redemption: As Held by the Members of the Church of England, and by the Early Dutch Arminians, Exhibited in Their Scriptural Evidence, and in Their Connection With the Civil and Religious Liberties of Mankind
I prefer to quote from Jenkins's pamphlets, rather than from larger trea tises, because they serve to shew that no grounds whatever existed for Bax ter's republican excuse in a preceeding page, (323) that the people were many of them uncertain which party was the higher and of greatest autho rity: Some thought the king, and others thought the parliament, &c. Many of them undoubtedly chosefor their own interest to remain uncertain which of these two powers was the greatest though they could scarcely be ignorant of the Law of the Landon that point, many thousands of Jenkins's pamphlets having being published in a cheap form and gratuitously distri buted among the people.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines religious affairs in mid-17th-century England, specifically regarding the abolition of the monarchy, the English Civil War, and the execution of King Charles I. It begins by giving context to Charlesās reign and his relationship with the monarchy, the church, and Parliament, and then explores the various reasons and parties responsible for his downfall. The author presents the motivations of the Presbyterians and Independents who were vying for religious and political control of England. The author argues that Charles Iās execution was a culmination of rising tensions between factions, primarily the clash between the divine right of kings and the growing sentiment that kings should be subject to the will of Parliament. This book is significant because it provides a scholarly analysis of the political and religious factors that led to King Charles I's execution.
