The Christian Ministry Not A Priesthood: A Sermon (1855)

By Henry A. Boardman

Book Overview

The Christian Ministry Not A Priesthood: A Sermon is a religious text written by Henry Augustus Boardman in 1855. The book argues against the idea that Christian ministers are priests and instead asserts that they are simply servants of God. Boardman argues that the concept of a priesthood is contrary to the teachings of the Bible and that ministers should focus on serving and guiding their congregations rather than acting as intermediaries between God and the people. The book is a passionate defense of the Protestant belief in the priesthood of all believers and a call to reject the hierarchical structures of the Catholic Church. The text is written in a clear and accessible style, making it easy for readers to understand and engage with the ideas presented. Overall, The Christian Ministry Not A Priesthood: A Sermon is an important work of Protestant theology that continues to be relevant to contemporary discussions about the role of ministers in the Christian church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
