The classic systematic statement of the Quaker faith, in an edition where antique and obscure words and sentence structure have been eliminated and references to people and matters of faith come alive through annotations. The nature of the church, its ministry and sacraments, and the relationship of church and state, with the consequent implications for religious liberty and Christian integrity, are key topics. For Quakers seeking better understanding and ecumenists trying to understand beliefs that were significant to Methodism, challenging to Calvinism, and frequently in rapport with Catholicism.
