Publisher's Synopsis
""The Expediency of Restoring at This Time to the Church Her Synodical Powers, Considered"" is a book written by James Thomas O'Brien, first published in 1843. The book discusses the importance and relevance of restoring synodical powers to the Church. Synodical powers refer to the authority and decision-making power of a group of church officials in a synod or council.O'Brien argues that the restoration of synodical powers would benefit the Church by allowing for more efficient decision-making and greater unity among its members. He also suggests that the Church would benefit from having a more democratic system of governance, where decisions are made by a group of elected representatives rather than by a single authority figure.The book is a historical document that provides insight into the debates surrounding the governance of the Church in the mid-19th century. It is an important resource for scholars of Church history and those interested in the history of religious institutions.In Remarks Upon The Appendix To The Late Charge Of His Grace The Archbishop Of Dublin.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
