Item description from seller

Important document of the Bangorian Controversy, instigated by Benjamin Hoadly (then Bishop of Bangor and chaplain to the King), which revolved around the issue of whether the Church had jurisdiction over temporal matters. The dual theological-political threat that Hoadly's sermon and his work "Preservative against the Principles and Practices of Non-Jurors" posed was, essentially, going too far in opposition to the non-juror issue at hand by arguing that the church should not exercise temporal authority, including by excommunication from the sacraments. Somewhat ironically because of this, Hoadly found himself in the favor of George I, who found himself aligning aligning with the position of the Whigs that favored the separation of church and state, as opposed to the Tories of the time who controlled the House of Lords and the aristocratic ranks. George I dissolved the Committee that was called to investigate Hoadly for this position shortly before they could censure him for the reasons outlined in this document. 15 pp. Folio. ESTC T145815. Leaves soiled, spotting, and largely detached. Good-.
