Synopsis
""Romish Rites, Offices And Legends: Or Authorized Superstitions And Idolatries Of The Church Of Rome"" is a book written by M.W. Foye in 1856. The book is a critical analysis of the practices and beliefs of the Roman Catholic Church, particularly its rites, offices, and legends. Foye argues that many of these practices are based on superstition and idolatry, and are not supported by the teachings of the Bible. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the use of holy water, the veneration of saints, the worship of the Virgin Mary, and the doctrine of transubstantiation. Foye's writing is clear and concise, and he provides numerous examples and references to support his arguments. Overall, ""Romish Rites, Offices And Legends"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and beliefs of the Roman Catholic Church, and provides a critical perspective on its practices and teachings.Containing The Greater Portion Of The Roman Pontifical, The Ordinary Of The Mass, The Principal Festivals And Offices Of The Blessed Virgin Mary, The Ceremonies At Most Of The Season-Masses, The Offices In The Roman Anglican Ritual, Copious Selections From The Services, Hymns, And Legends Of The Roman Breviary, And The Legends Of The Last Saints Canonized, The Office Of Electing And Crowning A Pope, And The Beatification And Canonization Of Saints.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
