Anglo-Catholicism Not Apostolical is a book written by William Lindsay Alexander in 1843. The book is an inquiry into the scriptural authority of the leading doctrines advocated in the Tracts for the Times, which were a series of theological publications written by members of the Oxford Movement in the Church of England. The Oxford Movement aimed to revive the Catholic elements of the Church of England, which they believed had been lost during the Reformation. Alexander, a Scottish Presbyterian minister, argues that the doctrines advocated in the Tracts for the Times are not supported by Scripture and are therefore not apostolic. He critiques the Tractarian belief in the apostolic succession of bishops, the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist, and the use of sacraments as a means of grace. He also questions the Tractarian emphasis on tradition and the authority of the Church Fathers. The book was controversial at the time of its publication, as it challenged the beliefs of the Tractarians and their supporters. It remains an important historical document for understanding the debates and controversies within the Church of England during the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
