St. Peter, Exeter, at two Consecutive Ordina

This 1889 treatise examines the doctrine of apostolic succession and its role in the Church of England. Drawing on scripture, tradition, and history, Harington argues that the episcopacy, or the order of bishops, is essential to the Church's continuity, unity, and authority. Apostolical Succession and the Necessity of Episcopal Ordination is an important contribution to the ongoing debate over the role of bishops in the Anglican Communion.
