An Apology for the True Christian Divinity is a book written by Robert Barclay in the 17th century. It is a defense of the Quaker faith, which was often misunderstood and persecuted during that time. The book is divided into 15 chapters, each addressing a different aspect of Quaker theology and practice. Barclay argues that Quakers are not a sect or cult, but rather a legitimate part of the Christian tradition. He defends the Quaker belief in the inner light, which is the idea that every individual has a direct connection to God and can receive divine guidance without the need for intermediaries such as priests or pastors. Barclay also explains Quaker views on baptism, communion, and the role of scripture. The book is written in a clear and persuasive style, and has been influential in shaping Quaker theology and practice. It is considered a classic of Quaker literature and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christianity or the Quaker faith.1877.
