The Unity Of The Episcopate Considered: In Reply To The Work Of The Rev. T. W. Allies (1848)

By Thomas William Allies and Edward Healy Thompson

Book Overview

""The Unity of the Episcopate Considered: In Reply to the Work of the Rev. T. W. Allies"" is a book written by Edward Healy Thompson in 1848. The book is a response to the work of Reverend T. W. Allies, who argued that the unity of the episcopate was essential to the unity of the Church. Thompson, in his book, challenges Allies' argument and presents his own perspective on the issue. He argues that the unity of the Church does not depend on the unity of the episcopate, and that the episcopate is not the only means of maintaining the unity of the Church. Thompson also discusses the history of the episcopate and its role in the Church, and provides a detailed analysis of the arguments put forth by Allies. Overall, ""The Unity of the Episcopate Considered"" is a thought-provoking work that offers a unique perspective on the issue of the unity of the Church and the role of the episcopate in maintaining that unity.In Reply To The Work Of The Rev.
