Publisher's Synopsis
""A Discourse of Church Government"" is a book written by John Potter and published in 1711. The book is a detailed examination of the relationship between the church and the state, with a focus on the rights of the church and the authority of Christian rulers. Potter argues that while the church should have a certain level of autonomy and control over its own affairs, it is ultimately subject to the authority of the state. He also defends the idea of a supreme Christian ruler, arguing that such a ruler is necessary to maintain order and stability within the church. Throughout the book, Potter draws on a wide range of historical and theological sources to support his arguments, and provides a detailed analysis of the various factors that shape the relationship between the church and the state. Overall, ""A Discourse of Church Government"" is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of an important topic in religious and political history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
