This book, published in the 17th century, weighs the Reformation's influence on the separation of the Church of England from the Catholic Church with the separation of Protestant dissenters from the Church of England. The author argues that, despite similarities in their claims of corruption in their respective churches, the circumstances differ substantially. The separation of the Church of England was necessary due to the Catholic Church's imposition of dogma that was incompatible with Scripture and required sin to maintain communion. In contrast, the separation of dissenters from the Church of England was largely due to disagreements about practices that, while not explicitly forbidden by Scripture, were seen as unnecessary or inexpedient. These differences, the author argues, provide a basis for distinguishing between the two separations, with the former being justifiable and the latter being schismatic.
