Publisher's Synopsis
Tradition Unveiled, written by Baden Powell in 1839, is an exposition of the authoritative teaching in the Church. The book aims to unravel the pretensions and tendency of tradition in the Church. Powell argues that tradition should not be the sole authority for religious doctrines and practices. He believes that the Church should rely on reason and scripture to determine its teachings. The book examines the history of the Church and its reliance on tradition. Powell also discusses the role of the Church in society and the dangers of blind obedience to tradition. The book is a critique of the Church's reliance on tradition and an argument for a more rational and scripture-based approach to religious teachings. It provides insight into the debates surrounding the role of tradition in the Church during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
