Piety Without Asceticism Or The Protestant Kempis: A Manual Of Christian Faith And Practice is a book written by Henry Scougal, a Scottish theologian and philosopher, in the 17th century. The book is a guide to living a pious and virtuous life without the need for extreme self-denial or asceticism. It is often referred to as the Protestant Kempis in reference to the popular devotional book, The Imitation of Christ, by Thomas ������ Kempis.The book is divided into three parts: the first part deals with the nature of true religion and the importance of a personal relationship with God; the second part focuses on the practical aspects of living a virtuous life, including prayer, meditation, and self-examination; and the third part discusses the importance of love and charity in Christian life.Scougal emphasizes the importance of a sincere and heartfelt devotion to God, rather than a mere adherence to religious rituals and practices. He encourages his readers to cultivate a deep and abiding love for God, and to seek to live in accordance with His will in all aspects of their lives.Piety Without Asceticism Or The Protestant Kempis is a classic work of Christian literature that continues to be widely read and admired today. It is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to deepen their spiritual life and live a more virtuous and fulfilling existence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
