Book Description
In this scholarly and controversial work, Richard Tydings challenges the traditional Anglican doctrine of apostolic succession, which holds that the authority of the Church derives from an unbroken chain of bishops going back to the apostles. The author argues that this doctrine has no basis in Scripture or history, and refutes the claims made by some Anglicans that John Wesley and Thomas Coke were validly consecrated bishops. A thought-provoking study of a contentious theological issue. This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Refutation of the Doctrine of Uninterrupted Apostolic Succession: With a Correction of Errors Concerning Rev. John Wesley and Dr. Coke; In Answer to the Rev. G. T. Chapman, and Others Sometime about the year 1829, when stationed in the city of Lexington, my attention was called to a recent publication, entitled "Sermons upon the Ministry, Worship, and Doctrines of the Protestant Episcopal Church, and other subjects; by the Rev. G. T. Chapman, D. D. Rector of Christ, Church," in that city. In this work, the Author claims for himself, and his beloved "Zion," exceedingly high and imposing titles; such as the "Primitive Apostolic Church;" "the only true Church, or 'Bride' of Christ;" the only Church that has a true, and properly authorized ministry; the Roman Catholic Church excepted. These high claims, it would appear, are set up on the obsolete, and long since exploded doctrine, of uninterrupted Apostolic Succession; which succession, the author supposes, belongs to his church. In other words, that her ministers have received holy orders from the Apostles, through a long line of Popes, Archbishops, and Diocesan, Bishops; which places them in possession of divine authority to minister in holy things.

The Gentlemen Theologians
Author: E. Brooks HolifieldPublisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1725220717
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Professor Holifield locates the southern theologians in their broader American setting and in the context of European debates about reason, revelation, science, and moral philosophy. He thus explores a wide range of topics that clarify the history of southern--and American--religion: the presuppositions of liberalism and the logic of conservatism; the influence of Scottish Common-Sense Philosophers, British theologians, and German Biblical critics; the foundations and functions of southern social ethics; the didactic uses of ritual; and the continuing effort of nineteenth-century theologians to demonstrate the reasonableness of both the Christian religion and the whole natural order.
Come Shouting to Zion
Author: Sylvia R. FreyPublisher: Univ of North Carolina Press
ISBN: 0807861588
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
The conversion of African-born slaves and their descendants to Protestant Christianity marked one of the most important social and intellectual transformations in American history. Come Shouting to Zion is the first comprehensive exploration of the processes by which this remarkable transition occurred. Using an extraordinary array of archival sources, Sylvia Frey and Betty Wood chart the course of religious conversion from the transference of traditional African religions to the New World through the growth of Protestant Christianity in the American South and British Caribbean up to 1830. Come Shouting to Zion depicts religious transformation as a complex reciprocal movement involving black and white Christians. It highlights the role of African American preachers in the conversion process and demonstrates the extent to which African American women were responsible for developing distinctive ritual patterns of worship and divergent moral values within the black spiritual community. Finally, the book sheds light on the ways in which, by serving as a channel for the assimilation of Western culture into the slave quarters, Protestant Christianity helped transform Africans into African Americans.
