About This Item
1686 1ed Church Fathers Gother Nubes Testium Catholic Protestant English & Latin
John Gother was a 17th-century English Catholic priest who published several controversial religious treatises. He concentrated on trying to convince Protestant theologians that Catholic doctrine was superior; emphasizing the focus on prayer and spiritual formation. 'Nubes Testium' is one such work in which Gother gives biographical sketches and testimony of church fathers both Catholic and Protestant. This 1686 first edition features both Latin and English texts in parallel.
