The Members of the Established Church Vindicated by William Geary

Description

The Members of the Established Church Vindicated by William Geary is a theological rebuttal written in the early 19th century. This book addresses criticisms directed at members of the Established Church by Reverend John Alexander regarding their approach to infant education. It seeks to clarify misunderstandings and defend the Church’s actions amidst controversial times and growing tensions between different Christian denominations. In the text, Geary responds to specific charges made against the Church regarding perceived exclusivity in its educational initiatives. He confronts the claims that the Church has acted unkindly and excluded children from other denominations, particularly focusing on the arrangements related to an exhibition in St. Andrew’s Hall. By analyzing the actual intentions behind the Church’s activities and emphasizing the values of unity and cooperation, Geary argues for a more inclusive approach to education that welcomes all children and encourages collaboration among various sects. The book ultimately advocates for understanding and respect among Christians, seeking to dispel misconceptions about the Church’s role in infant education.
