Excerpt from Practical View of Prevailing Religious System of Professed Christians: Contrasted With Real Christianity
Few subjects could be more happily chosen; be cause, without entering into controversy or awaken Ing the hostility of any class of readers, it argues on the admitted principles common to Christians gene rally, and especially to members of our national Church, and shows, beyond all reasonable doubt, the wide interval which had been interposed between our principles and our practice - our doctrine and our belief-our Bibles and ourselves.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a powerful and insightful exploration of real Christianity, written in a time when religious belief was under attack. The author, a leading statesman of his day, was deeply concerned by the spread of infidelity and the decline of genuine faith among the nation's elite. He contrasts the "prevailing religious system of professed Christians" with the "true religion" found in the Bible, exposing the false principles and practices that had become commonplace. The book was published in 1797, a period of great upheaval and uncertainty, marked by the French Revolution and its radical ideas. The author argues for the importance of a return to the fundamental truths of Christianity, not only as a matter of personal piety but as a vital force for national stability and moral strength. The author's arguments are both eloquent and persuasive, drawing upon his own deep religious convictions and his vast experience in public life. He tackles the objections of his contemporaries with grace and authority, arguing that true Christianity is not a set of rigid rules, but a living faith that inspires love, selflessness, and service to others. The book's lasting significance lies in its passionate call for a renewal of Christian faith in the face of intellectual and moral challenges, a call that resonates with readers even today.
