Evangelicalism

Evangelicalism: From The Standpoint Of The Society Of Friends is a book written by Francis Frith in 1877. The book provides an in-depth analysis and critique of Evangelicalism from the perspective of the Society of Friends, also known as Quakers. Frith examines the history, beliefs, and practices of Evangelicalism, comparing them to the principles and teachings of the Quaker faith. Frith argues that while Evangelicalism shares some similarities with Quakerism, such as a focus on personal spiritual experience and a commitment to social justice, there are fundamental differences in their approaches to religion. For example, Evangelicalism places a greater emphasis on individual salvation and the authority of Scripture, while Quakerism emphasizes the inner light and the importance of community. Throughout the book, Frith offers a thoughtful and nuanced critique of Evangelicalism, highlighting both its strengths and weaknesses. He also provides suggestions for how Evangelicals and Quakers can learn from each other and work together towards a more just and compassionate society. Overall, Evangelicalism: From The Standpoint Of The Society Of Friends is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the similarities and differences between these two important religious traditions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
