The Danger Of The Church-Establishment Of England, From The Insolence Of Protestant Dissenters (1718)

by Thomas Lewis

Book Overview

The Danger of the Church-Establishment of England, from the Insolence of Protestant Dissenters is a book written by Thomas Lewis and published in 1718. The book discusses the potential threats to the Church of England posed by Protestant dissenters, who were becoming increasingly vocal and organized in their opposition to the established church. Lewis argues that the dissenters' growing influence could lead to a weakening of the church's authority and a decline in its moral and spiritual influence on society. He also suggests that the church's close ties to the state could make it vulnerable to political manipulation and interference. Overall, the book is a warning to the church and to the wider public about the dangers of allowing dissenting voices to gain too much power and influence in the religious and political spheres.Wherein It Appears From Their Late Writings, That They Have Attempted To Subvert The Liturgy, The Canons, Articles And The Whole Discipline Of The Church Of England; To Ruin The Reputation Of The Universities And The Episcopal Clergy And To Inflame The Minds Of The People Against The Established Form Of Church-Government In This Kingdom.
