Preaching to the Poor, a Centennial Test of Presbyterianism (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book discusses the growth and evolution of Presbyterianism within the context of the American republican tradition, culminating in a critique of the Presbyterian church's failure to serve the poor. The author demonstrates that Presbyterianism began as a strong advocate for the poor and argues that the church has retreated from this mission, despite Jesus's command to preach the Gospel to them. The author emphasizes the importance of Calvinist doctrines as the theological basis for the church's historic commitment to serving the poor, contrasting it with more Arminian trends within Presbyterianism, which align poorly with this central principle. Finally, the author calls for the church to re-commit to its historic mission and to work toward social change in the United States. By reading this insightful and thoroughly researched historical analysis, readers will gain a comprehensive understanding of the intellectual, political, and religious influences that shaped both the Presbyterian church and the United States of America. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333706012_0
