Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complexities of the British succession crisis in the late 17th century, arguing that the Protestant succession was not only legally sound but also morally justified. The author begins by establishing the legal framework for the monarchy, emphasizing the principle of shared governance between the king and Parliament. They then examine the actions of King James II, demonstrating how his attempts to establish absolute rule and promote Catholicism violated these legal principles and justified his removal. The book also explores the theological dimensions of the crisis, arguing that the Protestant succession was necessary to protect the true religion from the threat of Popery. The author draws upon biblical texts and the writings of the early Church to support their position, emphasizing the importance of religious freedom and the duty of rulers to govern in accordance with God's law. Ultimately, this book provides a nuanced and compelling analysis of a pivotal moment in British history, shedding light on the complex interplay between law, religion, and politics. It offers valuable insights into the nature of monarchy, the limits of royal authority, and the fundamental principles that underpin a just and equitable society.
