Publisher's Synopsis
""An Apology For The Doctrine Of Apostolic Succession"" is a book written by A. P. Perceval and published in 1839. The book is a defense of the doctrine of apostolic succession, which holds that the authority and teachings of the apostles were passed down through the generations of bishops and priests in the church. Perceval argues that this doctrine is essential to the continuity and unity of the church, and that it is supported by both scripture and tradition. He also addresses common objections to the doctrine, such as the claim that it is based on a false understanding of history or that it leads to authoritarianism in the church. The book is aimed at a general audience and provides a clear and concise explanation of the doctrine of apostolic succession and its importance in the Christian faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
