The Book of Common Prayer


Book Description

Excerpt from The Book of Common Prayer: Interpreted by Its History To attain the ends of public worship, it is necessary that we should "pray" both "with the spirit and with the understanding." In our public assemblies for the worship of God we should, therefore, adopt such a method as is best calculated to effect that object. The Church, throughout all ages, imitating Scriptural example, has adopted forms of prayer. That branch of the Church to which it is our privilege to belong, by providing for our use that Liturgy, whose history, origin, and doctrine it is my purpose briefly to unfold, has declared it her opinion that this object is best secured by the use of such a prescribed formulary of prayer, as shall both meet the wants of the spirit and satisfy the demands of the understanding. An examination of the grounds of this opinion will show it to be firmly founded. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Book of Common Prayer: The Three Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary of Its Publication in English As it is with many other excellent things which we have and use, so it is with the Prayer Book: for the very reason that we use it and get good from it all the time, we do not always think how much it is worth to us. This anniversary year will be a good time for us to study our Prayer Book and to study about it; to study it, by at least reading it carefully through, rubrics and all; and to study about it, by learning all we can of its history and meaning. We shall find that it is one of the most interesting of all books, as well as one that is full of instruction and help.
