THE PROGRESS OF RELIGIOUS FREEDOM,

By Philip Schaff

AS SHOWN IN THE HISTORY OF TOLERATION ACTS,

BY PHILIP SCHAFF, D. D.

This most excellent treatise traces the progress of Christianity in its relation to the State from persecution to toleration, and from toleration to freedom. It is a companion to the treatise on “CHURCH AND STATE IN THE UNITED STATES,” and properly precedes it, and ends where the other begins. Both together form a brief history of

RELIGIOUS LIBERTY IN EUROPE AND AMERICA.

This history can best be written from an American standpoint, because America reaps the benefit of all the preceding toleration acts, and has successfully tested, by the experience of a century, the system of religious freedom on the basis of legal equality and a peaceful separation of Church and State.
