A Temple of Idols Not a Christian Church is a book written by George Wotherspoon in 1857. The book is a collection of correspondence between Wotherspoon and the Rector and Vestry of Christ Church in New Brighton. The correspondence revolves around the controversy surrounding the design of the church, which Wotherspoon argues is more akin to a pagan temple than a Christian church. Wotherspoon critiques the use of classical architecture and the inclusion of idols and other non-Christian symbols in the design of the church. The book provides a detailed and passionate argument against the use of pagan symbolism in Christian worship and offers a unique perspective on the intersection of religion and architecture in the mid-19th century.On The Subject Of The Images Introduced Into That Church, Together With An Introductory Letter To John Duer, And A Supplement.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
