The Reasonableness of Conformity to the Church of England, Represented to the Dissenting Ministers: In Answer to the Tenth Chapter of Mr. Calamy's Abr

This work is a classic defense of the Church of England against the criticisms of Dissenting ministers in the early 18th century. Hoadly argues that conformity to the established church is both reasonable and morally justifiable, and that the Dissenters' objections are based on misunderstandings and prejudice. This edition includes a detailed historical introduction and extensive footnotes explaining the context and significance of Hoadly's arguments.
