Book Description

Excerpt from Plain Facts for Fair Minds: An Appeal to Candor and Common Sense His book has been written, not with the View of controversy, but of simply stat ing' the Catholic doctrine. In these days there seems little need of controversy on our part with the majority, at least, of Protestant Christians; for their belief mainly consists of remnants of our own, and so far are we from objecting to it, that we thank God that they have preserved such impor tant 'parts of His revelation as are the dog mas of the Trinity, the Incarnation, and the Redemption of man by the great Sacrifice of the Cross. Some tenets they have, no doubt, which we cannot approve, but these are generally regarded as non-essential, and are losing their hold even in the churches which nominally maintain them. What they prize, we also teach. They, however, are not tired of contro versy. The very essence of Protestantism is in protesting against the Catholic Church.
