Christian Sacerdotalism: Viewed From A Layman�������s Standpoint Or Tried By Holy Scripture And The Early Fathers is a book written by John Jardine in 1871. The book discusses the concept of sacerdotalism in Christianity, which is the belief that priests have special powers and responsibilities in the church. Jardine explores this concept from the perspective of a layman, or someone who is not a member of the clergy. He examines the idea of sacerdotalism in light of Holy Scripture and the writings of the early church fathers. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of sacerdotalism. Jardine begins by defining the term and discussing its historical roots. He then examines the role of the priest in the church, and the extent to which they are necessary for the administration of sacraments. Jardine also discusses the concept of apostolic succession, which is the belief that the authority of the priesthood is passed down from the apostles. He examines the evidence for this belief, and considers whether it is supported by Scripture and the early church fathers. Throughout the book, Jardine presents a critical analysis of sacerdotalism, and argues that it is not supported by the Bible or the teachings of the early church. He suggests that the idea of a special priesthood is a human invention, and that all Christians have equal access to God through faith in Jesus Christ. Overall, Christian Sacerdotalism: Viewed From A Layman�������s Standpoint Or Tried By Holy Scripture And The Early Fathers is a thought-provoking exploration of an important concept in Christian theology. It offers a fresh perspective on the role of the priesthood in the church, and challenges readers to reconsider their beliefs about the nature of Christian worship.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
