A Preservative Against Quakerism (1732)

A Preservative Against Quakerism is a book written by Patrick Smith in 1732. The book is a critique of the Quaker religion and aims to provide a defense against its beliefs and practices. Smith argues that Quakerism is a dangerous and false religion that leads people away from the true teachings of Christianity. He criticizes the Quakers for their rejection of the sacraments, their reliance on inner light, and their refusal to take oaths or swear allegiance to the government. Smith also attacks the Quakers' pacifism, arguing that it is contrary to the teachings of the Bible and that it leaves the country vulnerable to attack. The book is written in a polemical style and is intended to persuade readers to reject the Quaker religion. It is an important historical document that sheds light on the religious debates of the 18th century and the tensions between different Christian denominations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
