The book is focused on providing evidence from the scriptures to support the apostolic ministry and tradition of the Catholic Church.

The book is divided into several chapters, each addressing a specific topic related to the apostolic ministry and tradition of the Catholic Church. Fry begins by discussing the importance of apostolic succession and how it has been maintained in the Catholic Church. He then moves on to discuss the role of bishops in the Church and how they are appointed and ordained.Fry also explores the sacraments of the Church and how they are based on the teachings of the apostles. He discusses the Eucharist, baptism, confirmation, penance, holy orders, and the anointing of the sick. He provides scriptural evidence to support the Catholic Church's teachings on each of these sacraments.The book also addresses the importance of tradition in the Catholic Church. Fry argues that tradition is not in conflict with scripture but is rather a necessary component of the Church's teachings. He provides examples of how tradition has been passed down through the centuries and how it has helped to shape the Church's teachings and practices.Overall, The Scriptural Evidence Of The Apostolic Ministry And Tradition Of The Church Catholic is a comprehensive examination of the Catholic Church's teachings on the apostolic ministry and tradition. Fry's use of scriptural evidence to support his arguments makes this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the Catholic Church's teachings on these topics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
