Explore the roots of church unity and division in Britain, seen through a detailed historical lens. This book offers a clear case for how early leadership and later dissent shaped modern church life.
The book, A Treatise on the Relations of the Church, Rome and Dissent, analyzes the British church’s ancient foundations, its links to Rome, and the rise of dissent. It draws on early sources and historical records to frame how church authority, ministry, and the right to administer sacraments have been argued and contested over centuries. The aim is to help readers understand why the Church of England and its relationships have mattered to devout Christians through the ages.
Across chapters, readers will encounter a rigorous look at how the primitive church established its authority, how apostolic succession is claimed, and how later movements questioned or redefined church ties. The author also contrasts Wesleyan ideas with wider dissent, highlighting debates over church membership, sacraments, and ministry. The work combines biography, tradition, and critical commentary to shed light on these enduring questions.
Ideal for readers of church history, Anglican studies, and religious scholarship who want a clear, historically grounded view of church relationships and reform movements.
