A Letter to the Rev. C. N. Wodehouse, Canon of Norwich; occasioned by by Green
"A Letter to the Rev. C. N. Wodehouse, Canon of Norwich; occasioned by his late Pamphlet, entitled ‘Subscription the Disgrace of the English Church’" by Rev. C. Green is a critical response written in the early 19th century. This book, structured as a letter, addresses the allegations made by Rev. C. N. Wodehouse regarding the implications of clerical subscription to the Thirty-nine Articles of the Church of England. Its primary focus is
the ongoing debate about the validity and integrity of the subscription among clergy and its perceived consequences for the Church's reputation and teachings. In the text, Rev. Green counter-argues Wodehouse's claim that subscription represents a disgrace to the English Church. He meticulously analyses Wodehouse's assertions and provides historical and theological perspectives to defend the current form of subscription against the argument that it leads to deception and disingenuous beliefs among clergy. Green's letter articulates that while there may be variances in interpretation and practice among different sections of the clergy, most adhere to their subscriptions sincerely and with integrity. His goal is not only to clarify his position and defend his reputation but also to urge a reasoned dialogue on the matter, emphasizing the need for unity and sound doctrine within the Church.
