Book Overview

""Primitive Episcopacy Stated And Cleared From The Holy Scriptures And Ancient Records"" is a book written by David Clarkson in 1688. The book aims to defend the Episcopacy system of church governance, which is a hierarchical structure where bishops hold the highest authority in the church. Clarkson argues that this system is not a later development but has its roots in the early Christian Church. He supports his argument by citing passages from the Holy Scriptures and ancient records. The book also addresses the objections raised against Episcopacy by other denominations, such as the Presbyterians and Independents.The author's writing style is scholarly and systematic, making his arguments clear and easy to follow. The book is a valuable resource for those interested in the history and development of church governance and provides insights into the debates surrounding the Episcopacy system.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
