An Inquiry Into The Merits Of The Reformed Doctrine Of Imputation, As Contrasted With Those Of Catholic Imputation (1843)

An Inquiry Into The Merits Of The Reformed Doctrine Of Imputation, As Contrasted With Those Of Catholic Imputation is a book written by Livingston Vanbrugh and published in 1843. The book is a detailed analysis of the two different doctrines of imputation, one followed by the Reformed Church and the other by the Catholic Church. The author begins by defining the concept of imputation and its importance in Christian theology. He then delves into the differences between the two doctrines, discussing their origins, development, and theological implications. Vanbrugh argues that the Reformed doctrine of imputation, which emphasizes the imputation of Christ's righteousness to believers, is more consistent with the teachings of the Bible and early Christian tradition. He also criticizes the Catholic doctrine of imputation, which he believes places too much emphasis on human works and undermines the grace of God. The book is written in a scholarly and analytical style, with numerous references to biblical and historical sources. It provides a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and theology of the Reformed and Catholic Churches, as well as the concept of imputation in Christian doctrine.Or The Cardinal Point Of Controversy Between The Church Of Rome And The Protestant High Church.
