A New Edition of A Free Enquiry into the Miraculous Powers: Which are Supposed to have Subsisted in the Christian Church is a book written by Conyers Middleton and originally published in 1748. This edition was published in 1844 and includes a new preface by the author. The book is a critical examination of the claims of miraculous powers in the Christian Church, and Middleton argues that these claims are unfounded. He examines the historical evidence for miracles and finds that they are often based on hearsay and unreliable sources. Middleton also critiques the role of the Church in perpetuating these claims, arguing that it has a vested interest in promoting the idea of miracles in order to maintain its authority.Throughout the book, Middleton draws on his knowledge of classical and biblical texts to challenge the idea of miraculous powers. He argues that many of the miracles attributed to Jesus and the apostles can be explained through natural means, and that the Church has exaggerated their significance.Overall, A New Edition of A Free Enquiry into the Miraculous Powers is a comprehensive critique of the idea of miracles in the Christian Church. Middleton's arguments are still relevant today, and the book remains an important work of religious criticism.From The Earliest Ages Through Several Successive Centuries, Upon The Authority Of The Primitive Fathers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
