Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a detailed 19th-century review and refutation of a Methodist address presented by one Mr. Nankeville. The author, a Reverend, was prompted to write this detailed response after repeated public attacks on his character and integrity by Nankeville. The initial address given by Nankeville was a public attack on the validity of the Church of England and its practices, specifically around the sacrament of confirmation, the role of bishops, and the ordination of ministers. The author's response is an in-depth examination of the history of these practices and beliefs, and includes detailed research, scriptural references, and quotations from historical sources to demonstrate the validity of the Church of England. The author here argues the validity of his own ordination and the lineage of apostolic succession within the Church of England. The text also includes references to the history of the Methodist Church and its origins, as well as the author's own views on the nature of schism within the Christian community. The author takes a strong stance against what he perceives as innovations within Methodism, and argues for the preservation of traditional practices and beliefs. Overall, this text offers a glimpse into the debates and discussions within the Christian community in the 19th century, and provides valuable insights into the history, practices, and beliefs of the Church of England and the Methodist Church.
