The Proposal To Change The Name Of The Protestant Episcopal Church Considered In The Light Of True Catholic Principles Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from The Proposal to Change the Name of the Protestant Episcopal Church Considered in the Light of True Catholic Principles 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. The essays and addresses embraced in this volume were intended to justify that refusal. They have been written from the point of view of the Anglican ideal of Catholicity. That ideal is derived from primitive antiquity. It is formulated in the writings of representative divines of the Elizabethan age, and of the so-called Anglo-Catholic divines of the Caroline period.
