Excerpt from The Church's Broken Unity, Vol. 1: On Presbyterianism and Irvingism
I am sure the Clergyman would not have made you pay, if you had told him you were poor. No, they replied, the children had got their name, and that was enough. And where, I asked, did they get their name Why, said they, the Registrar had put them down in his book, and that was quite enough.

Excerpt from The Church's Broken Unity, Vol. 1: On Presbyterianism and Irvingism
And so I went musing on. No, I said, it is of no use. Nothing can be done in this wretched town. It is true I am Vicar of this parish, and enjoy certain temporal rights vested in me by the law, but what spiritual relationship is there between the people and myself? Where are the hearts and the aflections of this multi tude? Parish Priest! A very good name in appearance. But in reality what does it amount to? The people are gone and fled, scared by doubts and fears, deceived by lying tongues and slanders, stimulated into hatred by preachers of strange doctrines, who know not what they say. The Church Alas it is a mere ruinous heap the remnant of something that once was, but now a crumbling mass, ready to fall down about our ears. Christ's Body! Unity! Love! What are they but mere names, when here in every street I pass there is a rending and hewing of everything holy into a thousand pieces, and no two men agree together.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the devastating schisms that have splintered the Christian Church. The author believes that the Church's disunity started with the idea that individuals could pick and choose their beliefs, rather than adhering to the collective wisdom of the Church. This erosion of unity has prevented the Church from effectively spreading the Gospel and has led to the rise of countless sects and denominations, each with its own interpretation of Christian doctrine. The author argues that this state of disarray is not what Christ intended for His Church, and that the only way to restore its strength and effectiveness is to return to the principle of unity. Ultimately, this insightful book encourages readers to reflect on the importance of unity and to work towards healing the divisions within the Church.
