Excerpt from A Second Letter on the Present Position of the High Church Party in the Church of England
When Mr. Gorham was refused institution, more than two years ago, I thought that it was almost impossible for him to raise a reasonable question as to the exact teaching of the English church upon baptismal regeneration a question, that is, such as a court would entertain. But time went on, and the real state of things and tone of doctrine which prevailed, for fifty or sixty years after the reign of Henry the eighth, during which the first movers of the changes in religion or their immediate dis ciples still lived, Opened, and became clearer from day to day.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the significance of the sacrament of baptism in the Church of England, particularly in light of the heated disputes the Gorham case brought before the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. The author, who grappled with his own doubts after the decision was delivered, analyzes multiple interpretations, including the impact of the Elizabethan writers. The author argues that while much of the practice within the English church might suggest an unconditional efficacy of baptism for infants, the official dogmatic teaching on the matter was sadly lacking. This work culminates in the author's resignation from his benefice and cure of souls. This book's careful analysis and close readings of historical documents makes it an essential read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity and the continuing debates over the nature and necessity of baptism.
