Excerpt from "The Counter Reformation"; "Movement"; Suggestions for the Solution of Present Difficulties: A Reply to the Pastoral Letter of the Right Rev. Lord Bishop of Gloucester and Bristol
Those are hard words. It is easier to wound than to heal. Your Lordship attributes to us principles that would disgrace a gentleman, and much more so a faithful Churchman: disloyalty, disobedience, rebellion. TO designate What we as true and loyal Churchmen do, to the best of our ability and knowledge, as our duty to the Queen, the Church, and the country, as a counter Reformation movement can only be understood as an Opinion founded on most insufficient acquaintance with facts imputing to us (what is odious to English honesty) sinister and unfaithful motives, in a manner and degree which we could hardly have expected from the hands of our Father in God. What we desire is recon ciliation and unity but how are they to be Obtained if such a course as this is pursued?

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a passionate defense of the Church of England and its place within the history of the Reformation movement. The author, a prominent member of the Church Union, takes aim at the accusations of disloyalty and rebellion that have been leveled against the Union by the Bishop of Gloucester and Bristol, arguing that these accusations are based on a fundamental misunderstanding of the Union's goals and principles. The book argues that the Church of England emerged from the Reformation as a distinct and independent entity, free from the authority of the Pope but still firmly rooted in the traditions of the Catholic Church. The author traces the history of the Church of England from its origins to its present state, focusing on the key events and figures that have shaped its identity. The book also explores the theological and political challenges that the Church of England has faced over the centuries, including the rise of Protestantism, the impact of the Enlightenment, and the ongoing debate over the role of women in the Church. Through a careful examination of historical documents and theological texts, the author argues that the Church of England is the rightful heir to the Catholic tradition in England and that it has a unique role to play in the religious life of the nation. The book concludes with a call for unity and reconciliation within the Church of England, urging all parties to come together in support of the Church's mission to spread the Gospel and to serve the needs of its members.
