Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church Polity of the Pilgrims: A Sermon The martyrs of the primitive churches of old lost more of their blood and lives for their meetings and assemblies than for personal profession of the faith; and so also have others done under the Roman apostasy. It is a usual plea among those who engage in the persecution or punishment of such as differ from them, that if they please they may keep their Opinions, their con sciences, and faith unto themselves, without meetings for com munion or public worship; and herein they suppose they deal friendly and gently with.

Download or read book Patterns of Polity written by Edward Le Roy Jr. Long and published by The Pilgrim Press. This book was released on 2001-06-30 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An excellent primer on the spectrum of ways in which Christians organize their institutional life, Long's study of polity—that is, methods of religious organization—intends to enlighten the reader about the ways in which belief shapes personal and communal function. "Patterns of Polity" is a comparative examination of church governance by bishops, governance by elders, and governance by congregations across contemporary branches of Christianity. "Patterns of Polity" does not defend the validity of any particular polity, but instead raises questions that are essential to all polities and to all communities: How is power created and used? In what ways are polities most likely to function well? In what ways are polities susceptible to corruption and dysfunction? How are conflicts adjudicated and finances handled?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church Polity of the Pilgrims: The Polity of the New Testament My Dear Sir, - When the articles containing the substance of this little work were first published in "The Congregationalist and Recorder," I read them with much interest, and expressed to you a hope that they might be re-published in a more permanent form. The practical importance of the subject of church government and polity appears to me to be vastly greater than many people seem to suppose. Congregational government is radically different from hierarchy in any of its forms. The former regards the members of a Christian church as capable of managing the affairs of the church: while the latter regards them as incompetent to manage those affairs; not capable of deciding upon the admission, discipline, or expulsion of their fellow-members, nor of maintaining fellowship with other churches. It, therefore, reduces them to the condition of a governed class; their duty being simply to obey the hierarchy, whose competency to govern them is assumed.

Download or read book Foxe s Book Of Martyrs written by John Foxe and published by Jazzybee Verlag. This book was released on 2012 with total page 950 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acts and Monuments by John Foxe, popularly abridged as Foxe's Book of Martyrs, is a celebrated work of church history and martyrology, first published in English in 1563 by John Day. Published early in the reign of Queen Elizabeth I and only five years after the death of the Roman Catholic Queen Mary I, Foxe's Acts and Monuments was an affirmation of the Protestant Reformation in England during a period of religious conflict between Catholics and Protestants. Foxe's account of church history asserted a historical justification that was intended to establish the Church of England as a continuation of the true Christian church rather than as a modern innovation, and it contributed significantly to a nationalistic repudiation of the Roman Catholic Church. The sequence of the work, initially in five books, covered first early Christian martyrs, a brief history of the medieval church, including the Inquisitions, and a history of the Wycliffite or Lollard movement. It then dealt with the reigns of Henry VIII and Edward VI, during which the dispute with Rome had led to the separation of the English Church from papal authority and the issuance of the Book of Common Prayer. The final book treated the reign of Queen Mary and the Marian Persecutions. (courtesy of wikipedia.com)
