Excerpt from Principles for Churchmen: A Manual of Positive Statements on Some Subjects of Controversy<br><br>The volume now in the reader's hands requires a few pages of explanatory introduction.<br><br>It consists of eighteen papers, on subjects of deep interest to all Churchmen in the present day. About some of these subjects a wave of most unsatisfactory opinion is spreading over the land. About all of them there is a painful amount of ignorance and uncertainty in many minds, and myriads of Churchmen seem unable to say what they think and what they believe. On each of them this volume will be found to contain some plain and positive statements, based on Scripture and the authorized formularies of the Church of England.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
