A Collection of Controversial Discourses (1727)

George Hickes

A Collection of Controversial Discourses is a book written by George Hickes in 1727. The book is a compilation of various controversial discourses and sermons that were delivered by the author. The discourses cover a wide range of topics, including theology, religion, politics, and philosophy. The book is divided into several parts, each dealing with a specific topic. The first part deals with the nature of God, the second part with the nature of man, and the third part with the nature of sin. The fourth and fifth parts deal with the nature of the Church and the sacraments. The sixth part deals with the nature of the state and the role of the Church in society. The final part of the book deals with the nature of controversy and the proper way to engage in it. Throughout the book, Hickes argues for a strict adherence to traditional Christian doctrine and a rejection of the more liberal and progressive ideas that were gaining popularity in his time. The book was controversial in its time and continues to be a source of debate and discussion in modern times.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
