A clear, polemical look at why the Church of England is presented as safer and more certain than Rome in early modern debates about faith, authority, and unity.
This nonfiction work surveys long-standing disputes between the Church of Rome and the Church of England. It argues that doubts and dangers are found in the former, while clarity and safety reside in the latter. The text weighs claims about church authority, the role of general councils, and the authority of Scripture, using historic and doctrinal arguments to frame its case for Anglican communion.
Readers will encounter a historical discussion of topics such as church unity, apostolic succession, and the relationship between faith, the sacraments, and church governance. The work presents a critical perspective on claims of papal supremacy and infallibility, asking readers to consider how authority has been exercised across centuries and confessions.
Ideal for readers of religious history, Anglican-Catholic debates, and early modern church scholarship who want a focused, argument-driven overview.
