Publisher's Synopsis
The Testimony of Saint Cyprian Against Rome is an essay written by George Ayliffe Poole in 1838. The book is centered around the religious beliefs of Saint Cyprian, a prominent bishop and martyr of the early Christian church. Poole examines Cyprian's views on the authority of the Roman papacy, specifically the concept of papal supremacy. Cyprian's writings are analyzed and compared to the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, with Poole ultimately determining that Cyprian did not support the idea of papal supremacy. The book provides historical context and theological analysis to support Poole's argument, making it a valuable resource for those interested in the history of Christianity and the development of papal authority. Overall, The Testimony of Saint Cyprian Against Rome is a well-researched and thought-provoking exploration of an important aspect of Christian theology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
