Publisher's Synopsis
High Church Doctrines Tested By The Scriptures: Four Lectures is a book written by James Muir McKerrow in 1878. The book is a collection of four lectures that explore the teachings of the High Church movement and compare them to the teachings found in the Bible. McKerrow was a Scottish Presbyterian minister who was concerned about the growing influence of High Church ideas in his community. The first lecture focuses on the doctrine of the Church, examining the High Church belief in the authority of the Church and the role of the clergy. The second lecture looks at the sacraments, specifically the High Church emphasis on the Eucharist and Baptism. The third lecture explores the role of tradition in the High Church, and the fourth lecture examines the High Church view of salvation and the afterlife. Throughout the book, McKerrow provides a critical analysis of High Church teachings, using the Bible as his primary source of authority. He argues that many High Church doctrines are not supported by Scripture and that they are therefore misguided. McKerrow's writing is clear and concise, and he presents his arguments in a logical and well-reasoned manner. High Church Doctrines Tested By The Scriptures: Four Lectures is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the High Church movement or in the relationship between Scripture and Church doctrine. It is a thought-provoking and engaging book that challenges readers to think critically about their own beliefs and the teachings of their faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
