Publisher's Synopsis
The book ""Canons of the Second Council of Orange (1882)"" by F.H. Woods is a comprehensive guide to the canons established by the Second Council of Orange, which was held in 529 AD. The council was convened to address the teachings of Semi-Pelagianism, a theological movement that challenged the orthodox beliefs of the Catholic Church. The book provides a detailed analysis of the canons established by the council, which were intended to reaffirm the Catholic doctrine of grace and salvation. The canons address a wide range of theological issues, including the nature of original sin, the role of free will in salvation, and the relationship between grace and human effort. In addition to the canons themselves, the book also includes commentary and analysis by the author, F.H. Woods. Woods provides historical context for the council and its canons, as well as insights into the debates and controversies that surrounded the council's proceedings. Overall, ""Canons of the Second Council of Orange (1882)"" is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history and theology of the Catholic Church. It provides a detailed and authoritative account of one of the most significant councils in the Church's history, and sheds light on the ongoing debates and discussions that continue to shape Catholic theology today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
