Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This volume contains the collected works of John Reeve (1608-1658) the founder of Muggletonianism, a religious sect that survived from 1651 until well into the twentieth century. Muggletonians believed that the spirit could not be seperated from the body, that God was a man between five and six feet tall and heaven was six miles above the earth. They fought the Quakers with great venom, in the process developing a vibrant and unique theology and apologetic. This volume contains fresh imprints of all John Reeve's published works together with some more modern literary references to John Reeve. Muggleton Press is in the process of republishing the full catalogue of Muggletonian literature.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This volume contains the collected works of James Birch, the Welsh prophet and visionary who split the Muggletonian Church, both before and after his death in 1800. Birch published two books in his lifetime, with a further collection of his letters being published after his death. All three works are included in this volume, all newly typeset and typographically modernised. These works are very rare, yet they reveal a little known and fascinating chapter in British religious history. This book forms part of the republication of Muggletonian literature being undertaken by Muggletonian Press.
