The Nature Of The Kingdom Or Church, Of Christ

The Nature Of The Kingdom Or Church, Of Christ: A Sermon (1717) by Benjamin Hoadly is a religious text that explores the nature of the Kingdom or Church of Christ. The author argues that the Church is not a hierarchical institution with a strict chain of command, but rather a community of believers who share a common faith and are united by their love for God. Hoadly emphasizes the importance of individual conscience and personal responsibility in matters of faith, rather than blind obedience to religious authorities. He also challenges the notion that the Church has any temporal power or authority over secular affairs. The book is written in a clear and concise style, with a focus on scriptural references and logical arguments. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christianity and the development of religious thought in the early modern period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
