Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This volume presents arguments against the Ritualist movement, a late 19th-century development within the Church of England that the author argues is a Romeward movement seeking to Romanize the Church of England and reunite it with the Catholic Church while undermining tenets of the Reformation, including the supremacy of the Bible. The author presents a collection of arguments and testimonies from respected authorities to support the view that Ritualists do not represent the true spirit of the Church of England and are hostile to the principles of the Reformation. The testimonies included in this volume reveal a systematic effort to revive, within the Church of England, many of the distinctive practices and doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church that were cast off at the time of the Reformation.
