Hardcover. 413 p.; 19.5 cm. Review notices at end, 12 p. [First printed in 1844; reprint of 1869 revision] `Ritualism is the aggressive heresy of our churches. The taint of this ritualistic movement has already infected even our Congregational and Presbyterian churches.' (p. 5) -- `To sum up all that has been said on the patristic identity of presbyters and bishops: they are known by the same names, they are required to possess the same qualifications, they discharge the same duties; they are therefore equal and identical in rank, office and duties--in all respects one and the same.' (p. 161) -- `Episcopacy encourages indirectly, if it does not directly inculcate, the notion of a vicarious religion. Ancient prelacy transformed the minister of Christ, under the gospel dispensation, into a Levitical priest. By this means the Christian religion was changed into something more resembling Judaism or Paganism than Christianity. The priesthood became a distinct order, created by the appointment of God and invested with high prerogatives as a vicarious propitiatory ministry for the people;--the constituted medium of communicating grace from God to man. The nature of the sacraments was changed. The sacramental table became an altar, and the contributions of the people an offering to the Lord. Papacy has held firmly to this doctrine of a vicarious religion down to the present time. Indeed no small share of the corruptions of that "mystery of iniquity" originated in its false idea of the Christian ministry.' (p. 384 f.) Good brown cloth, lacks spine. Hinges firm.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This collected set of proceedings from the early years of the American Silk and Fruit Culturist is an insight into the development of sericulture and commercial fruit production in the United States. The texts published between 1880 to 1884 provide a historical perspective on the major topics of concern for fruit and silk producers in this period: namely, the need for greater and cheaper production yields and better distribution of goods to market. The work also examines the social and economic aspects of this burgeoning industry and discusses how these factors interconnect with production and distribution methods. The book traces the development of American sericulture from its inception to the late nineteenth century, with a focus on the role of women in establishing the industry. The author calls attention to the fact that silk production was a cottage industry well-suited to women, and that the commercial success of American silk is largely due to their efforts.
