Apostolical Succession

Apostolical Succession: In The Church Of England is a book written by Arthur West Haddan and published in 1887. The book explores the concept of apostolic succession within the Church of England, which is the belief that the authority and power of the apostles were passed down through the generations of bishops. Haddan examines the historical and theological basis for this belief, tracing its origins back to the early Christian church and the writings of the Church Fathers. He also discusses the controversies surrounding the concept of apostolic succession, including debates over the validity of Anglican orders and the role of bishops in the church. The book provides a comprehensive overview of this important doctrine and its significance within the Church of England. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students of theology, as well as anyone interested in the history and development of the Anglican church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
