Excerpt from An Analytical Examination Into the Character, Value, and Just Application of the Writings of the Christian Fathers, During the Ante-Nicene Period: Being the Bampton Lectures for the Year MDCCCXXXIX
In preparing to commit this series of Lectures to the judgment of the public, the Author cannot refrain from mentioning those circumstances connected with their composition, which may, in some measure, claim for them a more indulgent consideration. His name was not originally proposed as a candidate for the appointment which has called them forth; and was only suggested at the moment of election. He was thus necessarily deprived of that time for deliberation, which is usual before the final acceptance of such an office, and which might very probably have resulted in the conclusion,

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book addresses the contentious discussion on the sources of Christian faith, weighing the exclusive authority of the Bible against the traditional view which sees both Bible and ecclesiastical tradition as having equal status. The author argues that the singular and absolute rule of Christian faith is found within the Bible alone. The author claims this view was held by the founders of the reformed English church, who did not reject tradition but valued it as a subsidiary aid for interpretation. This book is a foundational text on the subject of Christian faith, presenting an analytical examination of the writings of Ante-Nicene Fathers to support its claims. It is particularly relevant to ongoing controversies within the modern Christian church and offers valuable insights for students and scholars of Christian theology.
