Classic Christian work
A Reformed Catholic
by William Perkins
📘 Modern English translation available
A landmark work of Reformed apologetics, systematically comparing Protestant and Roman Catholic doctrine across twenty-two contested points — from free will and justification to the Mass, purgatory, and papal supremacy. Perkins argues that Reformed Christians are the true Catholics, having retained the core of the ancient faith while rejecting Roman corruptions. Each doctrine is examined through areas of agreement, sharp disagreement, biblical reasoning, and rebuttal of Papist objections, making this an essential resource for understanding the theological fault lines of the Reformation era.
