Excerpt from Principles for Churchmen: A Manual of Positive Statements on Some Subjects of Controversy
The volume now in the reader's hands requires a few pages of explanatory introduction.
It consists of eighteen papers, on subjects of deep interest to all Churchmen in the present day. About some of these subjects a wave of most unsatisfactory opinion is spreading over the land. About all of them there is a painful amount of ignorance and uncertainty in many minds, and myriads of Churchmen seem unable to say what they think and what they believe. On each of them this volume will be found to contain some plain and positive statements, based on Scripture and the authorized formularies of the Church of England.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a powerful and timely exploration of the Church of England in the midst of a period of great change and controversy. The author, writing from the perspective of a bishop in the nineteenth century, delves into the key tenets and principles of the Church, examining its relationship to Holy Scripture, the importance of doctrine, and the ongoing debates over ritual and practice. With the clarity of an experienced and thoughtful observer, the author grapples with the tensions arising from conflicting interpretations of Church teachings and the growing influence of alternative religious movements. He highlights the critical need for a return to the foundational principles of the Reformation and warns against the dangers of both a relapse into Roman Catholicism and a descent into doctrinal indifference. This insightful analysis provides a fascinating and still relevant commentary on the challenges faced by the Church in navigating the complexities of faith and tradition within a changing society.
