Oral Teaching Not Oral Tradition: In Things Necessary to Salvation, the Doctrine of Scripture, Reason, and Antiquity (1843)

Oral Teaching Not Oral Tradition: In Things Necessary To Salvation, The Doctrine Of Scripture, Reason, And Antiquity is a book written by C.C. Townsend in 1843. The book explores the idea that oral teaching, rather than oral tradition, is necessary for salvation. Townsend argues that the true doctrine of scripture can only be understood through the use of reason and by looking at the teachings of the early church fathers. The book also explores the role of tradition in the church and how it should be used in conjunction with scripture and reason. Overall, Oral Teaching Not Oral Tradition is a thought-provoking examination of the importance of oral teaching and the role of tradition in the Christian faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
