English Clergyman’s Holiday Thoughts on Established Churches
A long excerpt on Anglican establishment contrasting seventeenth century church growth with primitive church practice. It weighs church authority, the role of the state, and the spread of Christianity, citing Luke Acts Paul and the Apostles. The piece contrasts early meek church life with later establishment and outlines three policies framing church state relations. The author argues for faithful adherence to the gospel while warning against political entanglement.
