Excerpt from The Policy of the Church of Rome Promoted by the Abuse of the Royal Supremacy, and the Remedy in Convocation: A Letter to the Rev. Dr. Jeremie, Sub-Dean of Lincoln, and Regius Professor of Divinity in the University of Cambridge, in Reference to the Approaching Election of Proctors
I am not going to dwell upon the common objections to the revival of synods, arising from the fears of dissension and the like. Not that I think that such apprehensions are not deserving of respectful consideration, but because it appears to me that the time is come when they must be overborne by the overwhelming necessity of the case. And, believing as I do, that the Royal Supremacy has, of late years, not only been abused, but the very purpose for which it was restored at the Reformation perverted to the contrary, I would invite your especial attention to this particular fact.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores how the Royal Supremacy, once meant to defend the Church of England from Papal encroachment, has eroded ecclesiastical independence and undermined the Church's self-governing principles. The author delves into the historical arguments used by the Church's reformers and scholars against Papal claims, which have, in recent times, been shown by the courts to be significantly untrue. The implications of this erosion are manifold, leading to questions about the Church's authority and the validity of its governance. The book additionally argues that the Church should protest the designation of a "new Church" in England, as it undermines the Church's position as the sole legitimate religious body and weakens its claim to apostolic succession. By discussing these issues, the book seeks to provoke necessary conversations within the Church and guide its members toward a stronger, more independent, and authentically Catholic future.
