Publisher's Synopsis
A Refutation Of Hereditary Total Depravity: Or The Chief Corner Stone Of Calvinistic And Arminian Sectarianism Removed is a book written by Aylett Raines in 1859. The book is a critique of the doctrine of total depravity, which is a central tenet of both Calvinism and Arminianism. Raines argues that the idea of hereditary total depravity, which holds that all humans are born with a sinful nature inherited from Adam and Eve, is not supported by scripture and is therefore a flawed concept. He also takes issue with the way in which this doctrine has been used to justify sectarianism and division within the Christian church. Raines presents his arguments in a clear and concise manner, drawing on his knowledge of theology and scripture to make a compelling case for his position. The book is an important contribution to the ongoing debate over the nature of sin and the role of humanity in the divine plan.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
