Author: Robert Some (1542-1609) Publisher: G. B. [George Bishop] Origin: London Date: 1589 Description: Pamphlet Robert Some addressed this pamphlet to members of Queen Elizabeth's council. He argues against the Separatists Henry Barrow and John Greenwood and against the Anabaptists, lumping them all together as one and the same. Three main issues of polity arise. First whether a state church or a free church is best. Secondly, should the church (state) pay the pastor's salary or should he raise it himself and lastly, does authority rest in the congregation or elsewhere. Developed from review by Edmond Long |
