Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Necessity of Separation From the Church of England: Proved by the Nonconformists´ Principles The "Necessity of Separation," &c. was printed and published in Amsterdam; and, in 1634, when it issued from the press, it could have appeared in England only in the character of a prohibited volume. The author was then spending his first banishment of "seventeen years" for the truth´s sake in that city, and calls himself "Pastor of the Ancient English Church in Amsterdam." His character, through a long life, as far as it can now be ascertained, commanded respect even from his adversaries; and his work, reprinted in this volume, deserves a most careful study on two accounts - first, because the separation it urges is as needful and obligatory now as it was at any former period; and, secondly, because the arguments by which that separation is here enforced, disclose the nature of those exertions, pleadings, and sufferings, to which the reader is indebted for the privileges he enjoys. Every hour which is now peacefully employed in studying the arguments of this work, has, in no superficial sense, been redeemed from bitter persecution, by the sufferings, the perseverance, and the unimpeachable integrity of its author.
