""Two Letters of Advice: For the Susception of Holy Orders; For Studies Theological, Especially Such as Are Rational"" is a book written by Henry Dodwell and published in 1672. The book is a collection of two letters written by Dodwell, which provide advice to those seeking to become ordained in the Christian church and those pursuing theological studies. In the first letter, Dodwell offers guidance to those who are considering entering the ministry, discussing the qualities and virtues that are necessary for a successful career as a clergyman. He emphasizes the importance of piety, humility, and a deep understanding of scripture and doctrine. He also provides practical advice on the process of becoming ordained, including the importance of a thorough education and the need for a strong support network.The second letter focuses on the study of theology, particularly the importance of rational inquiry and critical thinking in the pursuit of religious knowledge. Dodwell argues that a deep understanding of theology requires not only a knowledge of scripture and tradition, but also an engagement with the philosophical and scientific ideas of the day. He encourages his readers to approach their studies with an open mind and a commitment to rigorous intellectual inquiry.Overall, ""Two Letters of Advice"" offers a thoughtful and insightful perspective on the vocation of the clergy and the pursuit of theological knowledge. Written in the 17th century, the book remains relevant to contemporary discussions about the role of religion in society and the importance of intellectual engagement in the study of theology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
