The Primitive Church

The Primitive Church: Compared With The Protestant Episcopal Church Of The Present Day is a book written by John Henry Hopkins in 1835. The book is a comparative study of the early Christian Church and the Protestant Episcopal Church of the 19th century. Hopkins examines the similarities and differences between the two churches and argues that the early Church was more pure and authentic than the Church of his time. He discusses various topics such as the structure of the Church, the role of bishops, the sacraments, and the early Church Fathers. Hopkins also emphasizes the importance of tradition and the need to return to the practices and beliefs of the early Church. The book is written in a scholarly and informative style and provides a valuable insight into the history of the Christian Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
