Remarks On The Rise, Use, And Unlawfulness Of Creeds And Confessions Of Faith, In The Church Of God (1825)

""Remarks on the Rise, Use, and Unlawfulness of Creeds and Confessions of Faith, in the Church of God"" is a book written by John Mason Duncan and published in 1825. The book is an exploration of the history and purpose of creeds and confessions of faith in the Christian church. Duncan argues that while creeds and confessions can be useful tools for defining and preserving the beliefs of a particular denomination, they can also be divisive and restrictive, limiting the freedom of individual believers to interpret and understand the Bible for themselves. He examines the origins of creeds and confessions in the early church and traces their development through the centuries, highlighting the controversies and conflicts that have arisen over their use. Ultimately, Duncan concludes that while creeds and confessions can be helpful in certain contexts, they should never be used as a substitute for personal study and reflection on the Scriptures. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and theology of the Christian church and the role of creeds and confessions in shaping religious belief and practice.In Two Parts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
