This book provides an examination of the controversial debate concerning the Triers, who were authorized by the Protectorate during the English Civil War to examine and assess the suitability of ministers for public preaching. The author examines the arguments for and against the Triers, drawing upon historical documents and the writings of leading figures in the debate, such as John Goodwin and Mr. Needham. The author places the debate within the context of the religious and political upheaval of the English Civil War, and explores the broader issues of religious freedom, the role of the state in religious matters, and the nature of Christian ministry. Through a close analysis of the key arguments, the book sheds light on the complexities of the debate, revealing the tensions between the desire for religious purity and the need for tolerance and diversity. It also highlights the enduring relevance of the issues raised in the debate, which continue to inform discussions about the relationship between church and state, and the nature of religious authority.
