Author Description

The book ""The Providential Effects Of The Late Gorham Controversy: A Sermon"" was written by William Verdon and published in 1850. The book is a sermon that discusses the controversy surrounding the appointment of George Cornelius Gorham as the rector of the parish of Brampford Speke in Devon, England. The controversy arose because Gorham's views on baptism were considered by some to be heretical. The sermon argues that the controversy was a providential event that had positive effects on the Church of England, including a renewed focus on the importance of doctrine and a greater emphasis on the authority of the Bible. The book is a historical document that sheds light on a significant event in the history of the Church of England and provides insight into the theological debates of the time.In Reply To That Delivered In The Roman Catholic Church Of St. John, Salford, By Dr. Wiseman, Entitled The Permanent Effects On The Church Of England Of The Late Gorham Controversy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
