Excerpt from The Idolatry of the Church of Rome
To say that Protestantism is a merely negative system, shows great ignorance, even of the meaning of language. To disbelieve, or to deny, may be a mere negation: but no man protests against anything, until he apprehends it to be contrary to, or inconsistent with, some great and important principle which lie maintains and loves. To be a Protestant, therefore, it is meces sary (if we attach any meaning to that word) to know so much of the Romish system, and to be so far established in the knowledge of Scriptural and Evangelical truth, as to understand and feel, that the value and importance of the latter lays us under a solemn obligation to oppose and de nounce the former. No man, therefore, can be really and truly a Protestant - can be worthy of the name - unless he has some knowledge (sound and correct, so far as it goes) of the Romish controversy.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a powerful and deeply researched exploration of the historical and theological debate surrounding the Church of Romeââ â¢s alleged practice of idolatry. Through a careful examination of key texts and arguments, the author lays bare the centuries-old disagreement between Protestants and Catholics, tracing its roots back to the Reformation and even further to the early Church Fathers. The bookââ â¢s analysis, however, is not confined to mere historical documentation; the author delves into the heart of the issue, scrutinizing the scriptural basis for the charges of idolatry levied against the Roman Catholic Church and meticulously examining the complex religious practices that underpin this accusation. The book provides a compelling case, drawing from a wealth of primary source materials, including canonical texts, theological treatises, and even devotional works used by Roman Catholics themselves. By examining the nature of idolatry, the author invites readers to consider the profound implications of religious images and rituals on the very fabric of faith and practice. The author argues that this book is vital for any individual seeking to fully comprehend the intricacies of this complex historical and theological debate.
