Tractarianism Not Of God: Sermons (1844)

By Charles Benjamin Tayler

Book Overview

Tractarianism Not Of God: Sermons (1844) is a collection of sermons by the Reverend Charles Benjamin Tayler. The book is a critique of the Tractarian movement within the Church of England, which sought to restore traditional Catholic practices and beliefs. Tayler argues that Tractarianism is not in line with the teachings of the Bible and the Church Fathers, and is therefore not of God. He also criticizes the movement's emphasis on ritual and external forms of worship, arguing that true faith is a matter of the heart. The sermons in the book cover a range of topics, including the nature of sin, the importance of repentance, and the role of the Church in the world. Tayler's writing is clear and persuasive, and his arguments are grounded in a deep knowledge of scripture and theology. Tractarianism Not Of God is an important work of theological criticism that sheds light on a key moment in the history of the Church of England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
