Excerpt from The Whole Works of the Right Rev. Jeremy Taylor, D.D., Lord Bishop of Down, Connor, and Dromore, Vol. 3 of 3: With an Essay, Biographical and Critical It is not any confidence that I have dexterously performed this charge, that gives me the boldness to present it to your Grace. I have done it as well as I could, and for the rest, my obedience will bear me out: for I took not this task upon myself, but was entreated to it by them, who have power to command me. But yet it is very necessary that it should be addressed to your Grace, who are, as Sozomen said of Theodosius, "certaminum magister, et orationum judex constitutes: " "You are appointed the great master of our arguings, and are most fit to be the judge of our discourses;" especially when they do relate and pretend to public influence and advantages to the church.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is the first volume in a three-volume series of theological writings by Right Reverend Jeremy Taylor, Lord Bishop of Down, Connor, and Dromore.

Taylor builds on previous theological research to explore the concept of confirmation. He discusses the historical background of this sacrament, providing a critical analysis of the efficacy of confirmation in his era and giving a framework to understand how it evolved over time. Taylor's work provides a nuanced understanding of confirmation's relevance within Christianity and a detailed examination of the varied interpretations of the sacrament's importance.
