Download or read book Reformation and Revival written by John Brown and published by Vision Forum. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1558, the death of Bloody Mary and the accession of Elizabeth I to England's throne offered new hope to thousands of exiled Protestants who returned to Britain en masse. Their aim -- to see Christ's Church purified. Reformation and Revival tells their story, chronicling the tragedies and triumphs that the Puritans experienced as they engaged the English Crown and the established Church on matters of Christian faith and practice. An excellent survey of the Puritan's struggle for religious liberty and impact on Western culture, Reformation and Revival offers readers a window into the Puritan world that gave us the likes of Bunyan, Baxter, Owen, and Cromwell on Britain's shores, as well as such leaders as Winthrop and the Mathers who established the great Puritan settlement in North America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dawn of the Catholic Revival in England, Vol. 2 of 2: 1781-1803 Among the bishops whose sees were suppressed was one who was destined to take a leading part in connection with the reception of the exiled clergy in England - Monseigneur de la Marche, Bishop of St. Pol de Leon, a small town in Brittany near St. Malo. He was among the first to leave France, and is called by Plasse1 the Precursor. A short account of his history and antecedents will be our best introduction to his remarkable personality. Count Jean Francois de la Marche was born at Quimper, in Brittany, in 1729. When a youth he was destined by his parents for a military career, and he fought in the War of the Austrian Succession. Being wounded in the battle of Piacenza, like another St. Ignatius, he forthwith determined to resign his commission, and devote himself to the service of the Church. He was ordained priest in 1 7 56, and became Bishop of St. Pol de Leon in 1 772, SO that he had already occupied that position nearly twenty years when in consequence of a dispute with the civil power he found himself obliged to take refuge by secret flight.

Download or read book God in the Dock written by C. S. Lewis and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2014-09-15 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Lewis struck me as the most thoroughly converted man I ever met," observes Walter Hooper in the preface to this collection of essays by C.S. Lewis. "His whole vision of life was such that the natural and the supernatural seemed inseparably combined. "It is precisely this pervasive Christianity which is demonstrated in the forty-eight essays comprising God in the Dock. Here Lewis addresses himself both to theological questions and to those which Hooper terms "semi-theological," or ethical. But whether he is discussing "Evil and God," "Miracles," "The Decline of Religion," or "The Humanitarian Theory of Punishment," his insight and observations are thoroughly and profoundly Christian. Drawn from a variety of sources, the essays were designed to meet a variety of needs, and among other accomplishments they serve to illustrate the many different angles from which we are able to view the Christian religion. They range from relatively popular pieces written for newspapers to more learned defenses of the faith which first appeared in The Socratic Digest. Characterized by Lewis's honesty and realism, his insight and conviction, and above all his thoroughgoing commitments to Christianity, these essays make God in the Dock very much a book for our time.--Amazon.com.
Download or read book God s Secret Agents written by Alice Hogge and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2005-06-14 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One evening in 1588, just weeks after the defeat of the Spanish Armada, two young men landed in secret on a beach in Norfolk, England. They were Jesuit priests, Englishmen, and their aim was to achieve by force of argument what the Armada had failed to do by force of arms: return England to the Catholic Church. Eighteen years later their mission had been shattered by the actions of the Gunpowder Plotters -- a small group of terrorists who famously tried to destroy the Houses of Parliament -- for the Jesuits were accused of having designed "that most horrid and hellish conspiracy." In an unusual turn of events, the future of every Catholic they had hoped to save would soon come to depend on the silence of one Oxford carpenter, a man being tortured in the Tower of London for building priest holes, those bunkers in which the Catholic clergy hid from English authorities. Using contemporary documents, Alice Hogge's brilliant new book pieces together a deadly game of cat-and-mouse between priests and government spies, as Queen Elizabeth and her ministers fought to defend the state, and English Catholics fought to defend their souls. It follows the priests -- God's Secret Agents -- from their schooling on the Continent, through their perilous return journeys and their lonely lives in hiding, to the scaffold, where a gruesome death awaited them. To their government they were traitors; to their fellow Catholics they were glorious martyrs. It was a distinction that the Gunpowder Plot would put to the test. Ultimately God's Secret Agents is the story of men who would die for their cause undone by men who would kill for it.

Download or read book The Cathedrals of Great Britain written by P. H. Ditchfield and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-08-10 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cathedrals of Great Britain is a work by P. H. Ditchfield. It delves into the architecture and history of British cathedrals. Excerpt: "In our cathedrals we have endless varieties of plan, construction, style and adornment, as well as in the associations connected with their histories. They derive their name from the Latin word Cathedra (Greek, [Greek: Kathedra]), signifying a seat, a cathedral church being that particular church of the diocese where the bishop's seat or throne is placed. If this church belonged to a monastery it was served by the monks, but many of our cathedrals were in the hands of secular canons, who were not monks, and should not be confused with the "regular" clergy."
