subject: Chamber Of Imagery In The Church Of Rome Laid Open By John Owen [print this page]
Welcome to the Still Waters Revival Books video book summary for "The Chamber of Imagery in the Church of Rome Laid Open; or, An Antidote Against Popery" by John Owen
A veritable masterpiece, not only as literature and thought, but as an antidote to the puerile and shallow conceptions of worship that abound today (in Romanism and among all forms of sectarianism).
Independents, Anglicans, Baptists, Charismatics, and even sadly many so-called "Reformed" churches today need the strong spiritual tonic dished out by Owen, to free themselves (by God's grace) from their present Babylonian captivity. The pretensions of worldly splendor, sensual experience, mystical "movings of the spirit," and the corruption of fleshly minds (that is always ready to burst forth from the cesspools of novelty) is laid low by Owen as he brings Biblical standards to bear against the beggarly elements of imagery, idolatry and innovation.
Demonstrating the odiousness of the shadowy abominations "portrayed on the walls of the Chamber of Imagery," Owen shows the futility of "ceremonies, vestments, gestures, ornaments, music, altars, images, paintings and bodily veneration," as proceeding from the will of man, and not God, in His own worship!
A real spiritual feast defending the Reformation's regulative principle of worship; don't miss it!
