Reasons why a Churchman may with Great Justice Refuse to Subscribe to the British and Foreign Bible Society

"Reasons why a Churchman may with Great Justice Refuse to Subscribe to the British and Foreign Bible Society" by Richard Lockwood is a pamphlet from the 1800s that outlines why an Anglican might not want to support the British and Foreign Bible Society. The author believes subscribing to the Society could weaken the church's authority because it allows the Bible to be spread without church guidance and mixes church members with those of other religions, possibly causing confusion of what the church believed. He suggests that instead of the British and Foreign Bible Society, people should support the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge because it sticks closer to Anglican values by steering clear of the varying interpretations of the scripture, helping them obtain affordable Bibles with the appropriate commentary while safeguarding the Church of England's teachings.
