Episcopacy And Presbytery (1841)

Episcopacy And Presbytery is a book written in 1841 by Archibald Boyd. The book explores the differences between the episcopal and presbyterian forms of church government. Boyd argues that the episcopal form, which is hierarchical and places authority in the hands of bishops, is not supported by the Bible and is therefore not a legitimate form of church government. He also argues that the presbyterian form, which is based on a system of representative government, is more in line with the teachings of the Bible and is therefore the proper form of church government. The book is a thorough examination of the two forms of church government and provides a detailed analysis of their strengths and weaknesses. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of church government or the ongoing debate over the best form of church governance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
