''A Doctrinal Epistle Purporting To Be An Exposition Of Christian Doctrine, Respecting The Nature And Office Of Jesus Christ'' is a book written by Elias Hicks and published in 1824. The book is a religious text that aims to provide an exposition of Christian doctrine, specifically with regards to the nature and office of Jesus Christ. The author, Elias Hicks, was a prominent Quaker preacher and theologian in the early 19th century. He was known for his controversial views on Christianity, which challenged traditional Quaker beliefs and caused a split in the Society of Friends. In this book, Hicks presents his interpretation of Christian doctrine, arguing that Jesus Christ was a human being who attained divine consciousness through his spiritual development. He rejects the traditional Christian belief in the Trinity, instead emphasizing the unity of God and the importance of individual spiritual experience. The book is written in the form of an epistle, or letter, and is addressed to a fellow Quaker. It is structured around a series of questions and answers, with Hicks providing detailed explanations of his beliefs and supporting them with references to scripture and other theological works. Overall, ''A Doctrinal Epistle Purporting To Be An Exposition Of Christian Doctrine, Respecting The Nature And Office Of Jesus Christ'' is an important work in the history of Quakerism and Christian theology, reflecting the evolving beliefs and debates of the early 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
