Bag om National Church Establishments

National Church Establishments: Examined is a book written by Ralph Wardlaw in 1839. The book is a critical analysis of the concept of national church establishments, which refers to the practice of a government establishing an official state church. Wardlaw examines the historical origins and development of this practice, as well as the theological and practical implications of it. He argues that national church establishments are not supported by the Bible and that they are detrimental to the spiritual health of the church and the nation. Wardlaw also discusses alternative models of church-state relations, such as voluntary associations and disestablishment, and advocates for a separation of church and state. The book is a significant contribution to the ongoing debate over the role of religion in public life and the relationship between church and state.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
