Tractarianism And Popery: Being A Course Of Lectures (1843)

By John Cumming and John Cumming Sir

Book Overview

Tractarianism and Popery: Being a Course of Lectures is a book written by John Cumming in 1843. The book is a collection of lectures that discuss the similarities and differences between Tractarianism and Popery. Tractarianism is a religious movement that emerged in the Church of England in the 1830s, while Popery refers to the practices and beliefs of the Roman Catholic Church. In the book, Cumming explores the origins of Tractarianism and its impact on the Church of England. He also discusses the similarities between Tractarianism and Popery, including their emphasis on tradition and the authority of the church. However, Cumming also highlights the differences between the two movements, particularly in their views on the role of the Bible and the authority of the Pope. He argues that Tractarianism, while sharing some similarities with Popery, ultimately diverges from it in significant ways. Overall, Tractarianism and Popery: Being a Course of Lectures provides a detailed analysis of two important religious movements in the 19th century and their impact on Christianity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
