Publisher's Synopsis
""What Shall We Answer? A Plain Address From A Protestant Minister To His People On The Subject Of The Romish Invasion"" is a book written by Disney Robinson and published in 1851. The book is a direct response to the growing influence of the Roman Catholic Church in America during the mid-19th century. Robinson, a Protestant minister, seeks to educate his readers on the dangers of the ""Romish Invasion"" and provide them with a clear and concise response to the arguments put forth by Catholic leaders. The book is structured as a series of letters from Robinson to his congregation, addressing various aspects of Catholic doctrine and practice. Robinson argues that the Catholic Church is a threat to American democracy and individual freedom, citing examples of historical persecution and oppression. He also critiques Catholic teachings on salvation, the role of the Pope, and the use of sacraments. Throughout the book, Robinson emphasizes the importance of Protestant values such as individual interpretation of scripture, personal responsibility, and the separation of church and state. He urges his readers to remain vigilant in the face of the ""Romish Invasion"" and to resist any attempts to undermine these values. ""What Shall We Answer?"" is a passionate and polemical work, reflecting the intense religious and political debates of its time. It provides valuable insight into the attitudes and beliefs of Protestant Americans in the mid-19th century, and sheds light on the complex relationship between Protestantism and Catholicism in American history.In Two Parts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
