Irenicum

""Irenicum: To The Lovers Of Truth And Peace: Heart-Divisions Opened In The Causes And Evils Of Them"" is a book written by Jeremiah Burroughs in 1653. The book is a treatise on the importance of truth and peace in the Christian faith. Burroughs argues that truth and peace are essential for the health and well-being of the church and that Christians should strive to promote both. The book is divided into three parts. In the first part, Burroughs discusses the causes of heart-divisions within the church, such as pride, envy, and a lack of love. He argues that these divisions are harmful to the church and that Christians should work to overcome them. In the second part, Burroughs discusses the evils of heart-divisions. He argues that these divisions lead to a lack of unity and cooperation within the church, which can hinder the spread of the gospel. He also discusses the negative impact that heart-divisions can have on individual Christians, such as causing them to lose their joy and peace. In the third part, Burroughs offers practical advice for promoting truth and peace within the church. He discusses the importance of humility, love, and forgiveness, and encourages Christians to work towards reconciliation with those they have disagreed with. Overall, ""Irenicum: To The Lovers Of Truth And Peace: Heart-Divisions Opened In The Causes And Evils Of Them"" is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers valuable guidance for Christians seeking to promote unity and peace within 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.
