Publisher's Synopsis
The Pastor and the Prelate or Reformation and Conformity: Secretly Compared is a historical book written by David Calderwood in 1844. The book compares and contrasts the Reformation movement with the conformity of the Church of England. Calderwood, a Scottish Presbyterian minister, argues that the Reformation movement was necessary to restore the true teachings of Christianity and that the Church of England had not fully embraced these teachings. He also examines the political and social factors that led to the Reformation and the subsequent conflicts between Protestant and Catholic factions. The book provides a detailed analysis of the religious and political landscape of Europe during the Reformation period and is considered an important work in the history of Christianity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
