Beskrivelse af The Bloody Tenant Yet More Bloody
The Bloody Tenant Yet More Bloody: By Mr. Cottons Endeavor To Wash It White In The Blood Of The Lamb is a book written by Roger Williams in 1652. The book is a response to John Cotton's defense of the Puritan doctrine of religious persecution. Williams, a Baptist minister and founder of Rhode Island, argues against the idea that the civil magistrate has the power to enforce religious conformity. He argues that true religion must be voluntary and that coercion only leads to hypocrisy and corruption. Williams also criticizes the violence and bloodshed that have resulted from religious persecution throughout history. The title of the book is a reference to Cotton's earlier work, The Bloody Tenant Washed and Made White in the Blood of the Lamb, which defended the persecution of dissenters. The Bloody Tenant Yet More Bloody is considered a landmark work in the history of religious freedom and a significant contribution to the development of American democracy.The Bloody Tenant Yet More Bloody: By Mr. Cottons Endeavor To Wash It White In The Blood Of The Lamb: Of Whose Precious Blood, Spilt In The Blood Of His Servants; And Of The Blood Of Millions Spilt In Former And Later Wars For Conscience Sake, That Most Bloody Tenant Of Persecution For Cause Of Conscience, Upon A Second Trial, Is Found Now More Apparently And More Notoriously Guilty. In This Rejoinder To Mr. Cotton, Are Principally I. The Nature Of Persecution, II. The Power Of The Civil Sword In Spirituals Examined; III. The Parliaments Permission Of Dissenting Consciences Justified. Also As A Testimony To Mr. Clarks Narrative Is Added A Letter To Mr. Endicot Governor Of The Massachusetts In New England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
