The Second Reformation: Or Christianity Developed is a book written by Alexander Alison and first published in 1851. The book explores the idea of a second reformation of Christianity, arguing that the first reformation of the 16th century did not go far enough in reforming the church. Alison argues that the church needs to be reformed in order to address the social and economic issues of the time, and that this can only be achieved by a second reformation. The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a history of the first reformation and the events that led up to it. Alison argues that the first reformation was necessary, but that it did not go far enough in addressing the issues of the time. The second part of the book provides a vision for the second reformation, outlining the changes that need to be made in order to reform the church and address the social and economic issues of the time. Alison's vision for the second reformation includes a call for greater social justice, the abolition of slavery, and the promotion of education and literacy. He also argues for a greater emphasis on individual conscience and the importance of personal faith, rather than blind obedience to the church. Overall, The Second Reformation: Or Christianity Developed is a thought-provoking book that challenges readers to consider the role of the church in society and the need for ongoing reform. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christianity and the ongoing debate over the role of religion in modern society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
