Pluralities Indefensible (1829)

Pluralities Indefensible is a book written by Richard Newton in 1829. The book is a critique of the practice of pluralities in the Church of England, which allowed a clergyman to hold multiple benefices at the same time. Newton argues that this practice is indefensible and detrimental to the spiritual well-being of the church. He argues that it leads to neglect of duty, lack of pastoral care, and undermines the authority of the church. The book is a passionate defense of the principles of the Church of England and a call for reform. Newton's arguments are based on his extensive knowledge of church history and theology, and his deep commitment to the ideals of the church. The book is an important contribution to the ongoing debate about the role of the church in society and the importance of clergy accountability. It remains a relevant and insightful work for anyone interested in the history and theology of the Church of England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
