Invited in the great and holy name of Catholicity to join the crusade against the name which our Church has honorably borne for a century and a quarter, and which was used as descriptive of the Colonial Church and the English Church at least a century before that, we reply that as true Catholics we are in duty bound to refuse our aid.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the reasons for preserving the term "Protestant" within the title of the Episcopal Church. The author, a prominent member of the Episcopal Church, contends that surrendering this title would be tantamount to denying the historical and theological distinctives of Anglicanism as a reformed, apostolic Church. The author examines the Protestant Reformation and the central role that the Church of England played in the movement as a champion of Scripture over tradition.
