History of Protestantism Vol 2
Church History by
James Aitken Wylie
Fifty Years in the Church of Rome tells the story of a gentle and loving man who was the epitome of what a Christian should be. It is an autobiographical documentary of how Charles Chiniquy, a Catholic priest, was ridiculed, upbraided, and brought under interdiction numerous times by his fellow priests and superiors for valiantly and faithfully following Jesus’ directives in the Scriptures. He used his keen God-given intelligence and his tactful manner to press for reform from the human debauchery, corruption, and vice that many of the men-of-the-cloth had fallen into.
