Primitive Christianity Revived: In The Faith And Practice Of The People Called Quakers is a book written by William Penn, a prominent Quaker leader and founder of Pennsylvania. The book focuses on the Quaker belief that their faith is a revival of the original teachings and practices of early Christianity. Penn argues that Quakerism is a return to the simplicity and purity of the early church, free from the corruption and dogma that had developed over time. The book is divided into three parts. The first part discusses the Quaker belief in the inner light, the idea that every person has a direct connection to God and can receive divine guidance without the need for intermediaries such as priests or clergy. The second part focuses on the Quaker practice of silent worship, where members gather together in silence to listen for the voice of God. The third part discusses Quaker testimonies, such as pacifism, simplicity, and equality, which are seen as essential to living a faithful life.Throughout the book, Penn draws on biblical passages and historical examples to support his arguments, and he also addresses common criticisms of Quakerism. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in Quakerism or early Christianity. Overall, Primitive Christianity Revived is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of Quaker beliefs and practices and their connection to the early Christian church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
