Book Description
Excerpt from Anglican Prejudices Against the Catholic Church Scrope, who was accused of recusancy be cause, ih the East Riding of Yorkshire, he had only imprisoned and tortured sixteen hundred and seventy Catholics. He knows as little of the reli gious ideas and religious motives of two hundred millions of his fellow-christians as if they lived in the moon. He forgets that the forefathers of whom he is so proud - the brave Saxons and Normans, good King Alfred, brave Richard Coeur de Lion, upright Sir Thomas More, and all the rest of his heroes - were of the old Faith. Can any good come out of Nazareth? With the feeling which characterises John Bull all over the world, he believes he is right and every one else wrong. It is hopeless to argue against such prejudice and one-sidedness. But as the effect of early teaching for a long time blinded my own eyes to simple facts, I am going now to enumerate these untruths one by one, and show you how they were disproved to my own satisfaction.

The Heritage of Anglican Theology
Author: J. I. Packer
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433560143
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 418
Book Description
Historical and Theological Reflections on the Anglican Church from J. I. Packer The Anglican Church has a rich theological heritage filled with a diversity of views and practices. Like a river with a main current and several offshoot streams, Anglicanism has a main body with many distinct, smaller communities. So what constitutes mainstream Anglicanism? Influential Anglican theologian J. I. Packer makes the case that "authentic Anglicanism" is biblical, liturgical, evangelical, pastoral, episcopal (ordaining bishops), national (engaging with the culture), and ecumenical (eager to learn from other Christians). As he surveys the history and tensions within the Anglican Church, Packer casts a vision for the future that is grounded in the Scriptures, fueled by missions, guided by historical creeds and practices, and resolved to enrich its people.

Oxford Movement
Author: C. Brad Faught
Publisher: Penn State Press
ISBN: 9780271045955
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
Well over a century and a half after its high point, the Oxford Movement continues to stand out as a powerful example of religion in action. Led by four young Oxford dons--John Henry Newman, John Keble, Richard Hurrell Froude, and Edward Pusey--this renewal movement within the Church of England was a central event in the political, religious, and social life of the early Victorian era. This book offers an up-to-date and highly accessible overview of the Oxford Movement. Beginning formally in 1833 with John Keble's famous "National Apostasy" sermon and lasting until 1845, when Newman made his celebrated conversion to Roman Catholicism, the Oxford Movement posed deep and far-reaching questions about the relationship between Church and State, the Catholic heritage of the Church of England, and the Church's social responsibility, especially in the new industrial society. The four scholar-priests, who came to be known as the Tractarians (in reference to their publication of Tracts for the Times), courted controversy as they attacked the State for its insidious incursions onto sacred Church ground and summoned the clergy to be a thorn in the side of the government. C. Brad Faught approaches the movement thematically, highlighting five key areas in which the movement affected English society more broadly--politics, religion and theology, friendship, society, and missions. The advantage of this thematic approach is that it illuminates the frequently overlooked wider political, social, and cultural impact of the movement. The questions raised by the Tractarians remain as relevant today as they were then. Their most fundamental question--"What is the place of the Church in the modern world?"--still remains unanswered.

Julian of Norwich's Legacy
Author: S. Salih
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 0230101623
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
Julian of Norwich the best-known of the medieval mystics today. The text of her Revelation has circulated continually since the fifteenth century, but the twentieth century saw a massive expansion of her popularity. Theological or literary-historical studies of Julian may remark in passing on her popularity, but none have attempted a detailed study of her reception. This collection fills that gap: it outlines the full reception history from the extant manuscripts to the present day, looking at Julian in devotional cultures, in modernist poetry and present-day popular literature, and in her iconography in Norwich, both as a pilgrimage site and a tourist attraction.
