Publisher's Synopsis
The People's Right Defended is a book written by Wickliffe in 1831. The book is an examination of the Romish principle of withholding the Scriptures from the laity. It argues that every person has the right to access the Scriptures and that the Roman Catholic Church's practice of withholding them from the general public is unjust and contrary to the principles of Christianity. The book provides a detailed analysis of the historical, theological, and practical aspects of this issue, drawing on a wide range of sources to support its arguments. It is a passionate defense of the people's right to access the Scriptures and an important contribution to the ongoing debate over religious freedom and the role of the Church in society.To Which Is Appended A Discourse On Transubstantiation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
