Two Letters On Apostolical Episcopal Succession, And Tradition is a book written by Charles Bowdler, originally published in 1841. The book consists of two letters that Bowdler wrote, in which he argues in favor of the apostolic succession of bishops and the importance of tradition in the Church. Bowdler's letters are addressed to a friend who had expressed doubts about these doctrines. In his letters, Bowdler defends the idea that the authority of bishops in the Church can be traced back to the apostles themselves, and that this apostolic succession is necessary for the proper functioning of the Church. He also argues that tradition is a vital source of authority in the Church, and that it is through tradition that the Church can maintain its unity and continuity with the past. Bowdler's arguments are based on a close reading of the Bible, as well as on the writings of early Church fathers and other historical sources. The book is a valuable resource for those interested in the history and theology of the Church, as well as for those seeking to understand the origins of the doctrine of apostolic succession and the role of tradition in the Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
